Horn is adding a new threading option to its Supermini system with the introduction of sintered GM-geometry inserts designed for internal threading applications. The GM geometry is engineered for turning metric ISO partial profile internal threads, providing reliable chip control even with challenging, long-chipping materials.
The chipbreaker design promotes consistent short chips, reducing the risk of chip buildup, tangling around the toolholder and potential process interruptions. This improves process stability and simplifies chip management. The inserts are designed for core hole diameters starting at 5 mm (0.197") with pitch sizes ranging from 0.5 mm (0.028") to 1.5 mm (0.060"). The new inserts are compatible with standard Supermini toolholders, making integration simple and efficient.
