Big Kaiser Expands Tool Insert Options

February 12, 2020
Big Kaiser Precision Tooling is adding more than 30 pressed-geometry carbide inserts for its tools. The new insert design is the result of extensive research and testing. 

The new grades and geometries offer: 
•Improved chip control due to optimized chip breakers, even when boring gummy materials like low-carbon or stainless steel
•Improved coatings for increased speed and better wear resistance
•More positive cutting geometries to reduce cutting forces, chatter and vibration when used in deep-hole boring operations
•Longer tool life
•Up to 20% savings when compared to current grades

Big Kaiser offers a range of insert grades and geometries for rough and finish boring, grooving and precision cutting, including indexable inserts.
