The DS20 for aluminum/non-ferrous metals is available for the first time for the C-Centering Cutter. Its diamond-like DLC coating is ultra-smooth with a low wear coefficient and superior welding resistance, and effectively prevents burrs.

The new ACM250F stainless steel grade can be used for chamfering and spot drilling with the C-Cutter Mini or C-Centering Cutter. PVD-coated carbide with excellent smoothness, the new grade resists welding and chipping due to the ultra-multilayered thin film structure made of AlTiN and TiAlCrN. The ACM250F replaces the ACZ150 used with the C-Centering Cutter.
