This expanded offering features a wide range of new tools, including material-specific turning insert grades, spotting drills, combined drill and countersink tools as well as additional solid carbide roughing end mills.

Its portfolio includes high-speed steel, cobalt and carbide drills in a variety of lengths, such as jobber, screw machine and taper. Threading products are available in general purpose hand, spiral point and spiral fluted taps with taper, plug or bottoming chamfers. Hertel offers a full line of general purpose end mills, including roughing, ball nose, square end, 2-flute, 3-flute, multi-flute and double-ended products. The range of expanded tooling now also includes:
Hertel turning insert products including HC115T turning grade for steel, HP410T/HT410T grades for non-ferrous materials, and HP510T grade for high temperature alloys. These new grades and chip breaker geometries work across a wide variety of applications, including steel, stainless steels and cast iron.
HertelNotch™ is the new comprehensive grooving and threading platform, which includes inserts, tool holders and spare parts, all designed to cover a wide range of materials.
A threading solution adds to MSC’s versatile proprietary cut-off and grooving system, increasing its flexibility and effectiveness.
