Richfield, Wisconsin – Known for smooth cutting operations at high feed rates that reduce machining time, the Carmex Precision Tools Mini Spiral Mill-Thread line is now available in inch sizes, as well as metric.

The spiral fluted toolholders, with internal coolant bore, hold from 1-to-3 inserts and are available in comparably small cutting diameters. The spiral design reduces vibrations and chatter, resulting in a high-quality surface finish.

The variety of sizes and the availability of MT7 Sub-Micron grade with TiAIN multi-layer coating offer users a range of choices and the assurance of longer tool life.
