Carbide tool holder

<< < (3/4) > >>

Norm,

Are there any letters/numbers written down the side of the holder?

The holders are normally hardened, the better quality the holder the harder they are.... as a minimum you will need a carbide milling cutter to do it.

I have had some success buying Chinese tool holders. They are not as hard as quality ones but are ok.

P.S. I have found one cheap Chinese supplier that is selling boxes of 10 Japanese Mitsubishi CCMT09T304 tips on Fleabay for less than £8. So far I am pacing myself and have only brought 4 boxes  :coffee:

I often buy screws for insert holding from here: https://www.shop-apt.co.uk/torx-screws.html

What brand of tool is it?......OZ.

seadog:
i use shop apt all the time. Expensive but good kit and a fast turn-around.

Manxmodder:
TCMT inserts of various sizes and material cutting types:https://www.shop-apt.co.uk/carbide-inserts-for-turning-apt/page/5/

Manxmodder:
Lathe tools of a similar pattern to yours that use  TCMT inserts.
