ITC face grooving insert holders fit Kaiser boring heads

To extend its product offering to turned parts manufacturers, Industrial Tooling Corporation (ITC) has launched a line of face grooving insert holders that have been designed to fit Kaiser’s series 318 and SW twin-cutter boring heads (also offered by ITC).

Face grooving with boring tools is generally more efficient than milling with circular interpolation, says the company, especially when manufacturing bores with large diameters. Additionally, whenever a surface for a sealing application is required, there is no other option than to use boring tools with face grooving accessories.

The face grooving system offered by ITC can be used as either a single or twin grooving tool for diameters ranging from 53 to 3,000 mm. The system can accommodate these diameters with a grooving depth up to 12 mm and a width up to 9.5 mm (5 mm with a single cutter).
