Product overviewThe PHCW double‑sided high‑feed radius cutter reduces mold roughing time by combining a multi‑insert body with inserts designed for high toughness and low cutting resistance. The four‑corner double‑sided insert increases cost efficiency, while screw‑fit and straight‑shank options cover a wide range of machining setups, including long overhang applications when used with a dedicated shank holder.
Features- Large simulated radius to improve resistance to chipping
- Thick, high‑rigidity insert for stable cutting performance
- Chip breaker with large rake angle reduces cutting resistance
- Economical double‑sided, four‑corner insert design lowers running costs
- Cutter body with coolant holes for improved chip evacuation
- Multi‑insert body option to increase machining efficiency
Applications- Mild steel
- Carbon steel
- Low carbon steel
- Alloy steel
- Die steel
- Stainless steel
- Cast iron
- Ductile cast iron
- Superalloy (wet)
- Titanium alloy (wet)
- Pre‑hardened steel
- Steel for die casting
Lineup- Straight shank type: φ16–φ32
- Screw fit type: φ16–φ40 (supports extended reach with dedicated shank holder)
Data / PerformancePHCW provides consistently low cutting resistance even at L/D = 5D machining, enabling stable and reliable roughing operations.
