Solid carbide provides better rigidity than high speed steel. It is extremely heat resistant and used for high speed applications on cast iron, nonferrous materials, plastics and other tough-to-machine materials.

• Uncoated tools do not feature supportive treatments on the cutting edge
• Used at reduced speeds for general applications on nonferrous metals
• Uncoated, spiral flute, 40° helix
• Centercutting with right hand cut
• Right hand flute, long length

Center cutting tools have one or more cutting edges at the tip and are used in a variety of applications including plunging, drilling or ramping.
