Tungaloy expanded TungThread line of indexable threading tools include 11ER external threading inserts as well as 8mm x 8mm and 10mm x 10mm square shank holders to accommodate the new inserts.
The 11ER insert is smaller than conventional 16ER inserts, and the insert holders are designed to ensure a minimum interference when machined toward the sub-spindle, which is an issue with a 16ER insert holder.
This expansion will enhance the TungThread series to meet the needs of various threading applications on Swiss type automatic lathes and other small-parts manufacturing equipment.
