Designed for the mold and die and aerospace sector, a milling cutter has a wide prism contact between the insert and holder to provide an extremely stable structure.

TaeguTec, the world's fastest growing tooling company is proud to announce the launch of yet another innovative new product - the Chase F-Ball.

Designed for the mold and die and aerospace sector, the Chase F-Ball has a wide prism contact between the insert and holder to provide an extremely stable structure.

This new innovation has a maximum run-out of 0.01mm and a repeatability of 0.01mm - levels unparalleled by competitors 'V' pocket design.

The guide roll of the prism shape guarantees easy clamping between the insert and holder, which is supported by a high tensile screw that provides a strong clamping structure.

This structure is further supported by a carbide shank that makes the Chase F-Ball ideal for machining deep mould cavities.

The exceptional rigidity of the Chase F-Ball makes the cutter suitable for high precision milling at high speed.

This rigidity is the same as a solid carbide end mill; this significantly improves tool life, surface finish and accuracy in comparison to steel shank tooling.

This extremely accurate system is ideal for semi-finishing and finishing operations.

The insert grades currently available for the Chase F-Ball are the TT9030 for general machining, the TT1040 for high hardened steel and high speed machining and the TT8030 for semi-finishing and the aerospace industry.

The range of inserts makes the Chase F-Ball suitable to companies machining low carbon steels, alloy steels, pre-hardened steel for mold and die, tool steel, stainless steel, cast iron and aluminium alloys.
