940 Series

Tool 942i1224C

Sharp corners chip. Carbide edges fail when heat builds faster than it can dissipate.

The 942i1224C uses a titanium diboride coating to address thermal management in demanding marking operations.
TiB₂'s high thermal conductivity pulls heat away from the cutting edge while maintaining hardness above 3000 HV.
The 0.024" tip diameter produces consistent line widths in steel, aluminum, and composite materials where mark legibility directly impacts part acceptance.
Single flute design evacuates chips cleanly in interrupted cuts.
The 90-degree included angle balances tip strength with marking definition, particularly useful for serial numbers and part identification where readability requirements are strict.
Heat treatment and coating application are optimized for the thermal cycling common in high-volume marking applications.
