Features

Rake

Negative rake Icon
  • The original Z-Carb design with a negative rake, heavy core, and higher helix for strength and shearing of hard mold & die materials.

Corner

End corner radius icon
  • Enhanced corner geometry with tight tolerance corner radii.

Fluting

Unequal flute spacing Icon
  • Unequal flute spacing helps to disrupt the rhythmic pattern created by the cutting edge helping to suppress damaging harmonics.
Coatings
Ti-namite-x Logo
  • The structural design of Ti-Namite-X is adapted to meet a diverse range of applications; everything from high- and low-alloy steels to hardened materials (up to 65 HRC core hardness). Ti-Namite-X is suitable for operations that require high cutting speeds, high temperatures at the cutting edge, and high metal removal rates.
