PFERD INC. (Milwaukee, WI) has introduced CAST CUT, a new line of high-performance carbide burs specially designed for work on cast iron. They are characterized by an extremely high stock removal rate, coupled with a smooth milling action that significantly reduces vibration and noise, according to the company. CAST CUT achieves stock removal rates up to 100% higher than conventional double cut burs thanks to its innovative tooth geometry – a major plus for automotive customers, given the industry’s relentless drive to boost productivity and save time. Other key markets include foundry, welding, and general industry. Other features include:
- A cutting speed in the 1,500 - 2,500 sfpm range (rotational speed of 12,000 - 20,000 rpm).
- An aggressive cutting action that results in large chips and good chip removal, which, combined with its high metal removal rate produces optimum results in the shortest possible time.
- An energy-efficient design that reduces waste.
- Availability in five standard SCTI shapes with a shank diameter of ¼”.
