Parting Tools
Parting decides whether a bar job runs unattended. Blade rigidity, coolant pressure delivered at the edge, and an insert geometry that curls the chip inward are what make that possible.

- Stainless steel
- Cast iron
- Non-ferrous
- Superalloys & titanium
Why this range
- Cut-off depth to 50 mm
- High-pressure coolant to 80 bar at the edge
- Left-hand, right-hand and neutral geometries
