Description
Tungsten Carbide Cutters are ideal for shaping, smoothing or removing material
from especially hard materials.
Shapes,
smooths or grinds especially hard materials including: hardened steel,
stainless steel, cast iron, nonferrous metals, fired ceramics, plastics
and hard woodsA high-speed
cutter made of tungsten carbide, the hardest material next to diamondsUse higher
speeds for hard woods, slower speeds for metals and very slow speeds for
plasticsUse the
sides of the cutter (Rather than the tip) for effective cutting
User Tips
Do not use
this cutter for drilling holes or for enlarging holes that are less than
twice the diameter of the cutter. The tungsten carbide surface can easily
catch the side of a hole and break the bit.For best
results, insert the accessory bit all the way into the tool and then back it
out slightly before tightening down. This provides plenty of shank for the
collet or chuck to hold onto the bit.Secure objects
to a stable surface while working.Use the sides
of the cutter (rather than the tip) for effective cutting. The tip cuts
poorly and can break under pressure.Use higher
speeds for hard woods, slower speeds for metals and very slow speeds for
plastics (to avoid melting at the point of contact). If chattering occurs,
increase speed.
