Tungaloy’s TCB series of counterboring tools incorporates expanded tool diameters, ranging from 26 to 59 mm or 1.02" to 2.32", as well as inserts with the CG-style chipbreaker geometry. The company has introduced these expanded tool diameters in response to a diverse boring market. The new diameters facilitate chip flow in various materials at a range of cutting depths.
The expanded TCB line incorporates a cartridge design to ease diameter adjustments. The diameter can be adjusted by placing different sizes of shims between the tool body and cartridge. This enables a single tool body to machine various diameters. Diameter adjustments in increments of 0.1 mm or 0.004" are also possible with thinner shims.
The TCB series also offers a high-efficiency tooling solution, available for boring and hole enlargement applications and for ID turning and boring on lathes.
