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 woods -
A high-speed cutter made of tungsten carbide, the hardest material next to
diamonds -
Use higher speeds for hard woods, slower speeds for metals and very slow
speeds for plastics -
Use 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.
