The solid carbide thread milling tool (TMDR) for drilling, thread milling, and chamfering does not require pre-drilled holes and works immediately on the surface of the component to improve cycle time and productivity. It can work on components with pre-drilled holes such as blind holes, through holes, and semi-finished holes.
TMDR tools are offered for full-profile applications, with and without coolant, and are suitable for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals.
