Dormer’s J2 thread mills deliver versatility

Dormer Pramet has launched a substantial thread milling programme, with the aim of providing machine shops with a reliable and versatile threading option.

Available under the Dormer brand, each of the new J2 family cutters is recommended for materials that include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, titanium, nickel, copper, aluminium and plastic.

An Alcrona Pro coating and solid carbide substrate are said to provide a tough and wear-resistant structure, offering security and reliability, as well as increased performance and longer tool life.

A total of 10 milling cutter (J2xx) families have been developed, offering a mix of thread forms that include M, MF, UNC, UNF, G (BSP) and NPT, with or without internal oil feed.

The same cutter can be used for many materials and diameters, as long as the pitch is the same, while Dormer's J200 and J205 ranges also offer chamfering.
