940 Series

Tool 942i1608C

Sharp corners chip. Burrs follow.

The 942i1608C delivers a 0.008" tip diameter with TiB₂ coating for extended tool life in abrasive materials.
The coating's hardness reduces edge wear when marking hardened steels and composites where standard carbide dulls quickly.
Single flute design evacuates material efficiently while maintaining rigidity at the cutting edge.
Ninety-degree included angle provides the optimal balance between tip strength and mark definition.
Tighter angles fracture under load.
Wider angles sacrifice edge sharpness.
This geometry holds its edge through repeated marking cycles in aluminum, steel, and fiber-reinforced composites.
The 0.008" tip produces fine line widths for part numbers, logos, and inspection marks where space is limited.
