ITC extends 4121 Cyber composite milling cutter series

The line of milling tools for machining graphite, glass and carbon fibre composites from Industrial Tooling Corporation (ITC) has been extended. The success of the 4121 Cyber series of end-mills in the aerospace and motorsport sectors has convinced ITC to extend its 'micro' range of cutting tool solutions with the introduction of 1 and 2 mm diameter cutters.

The solid carbide square end-mill cutters have been developed from a micro-grain carbide composition for enhanced rigidity, tool life and machining performance. To deliver optimal cutting conditions when machining these difficult-to-process materials, ITC's four-fluted series is diamond coated to dissipate heat and prolong tool life.

The 1 and 2 mm diameter centre cutting end-mills have a 3 mm shank diameter, an overall length of 40 mm and a cut length of 3 and 7 mm respectively.
