Flute Type: Thread Forming/Fluteless
Recommended for: Forming Threads in materials with at least 10% elongation
Shank Standard: DIN 371
Type: High speed steel Cobalt (HSSE)
Coating: TiAlN (Titanium Aluminium Nitride) - This is a special coating for machining abrasive materials such as Grey cast iron, Al-alloys with silicon, fibre reinforced plastics, etc., or machining under high temperatures, such as insufficient coolant or high speeds> 600m/min. TiAlN coating has a hardness of approx. 3,000 HV and is temperature resistant up to approx. 800°C.
