tips are ground on all surfaces to create tangential and radial clearance and provide the proper cutting and clearance angles

The outcome is a range of blades that we are proud to have our stamp of approval written all over it, we are now supplying our blades to boatyards all over the world and the feedback is fantastic. We are getting longer use from our blades and this, in turn, offers our customers an additional saving not a part of our initial brief. Although developed for use in Aluminium boat building, this product is also suitable for use on other harder metals including stainless steel

We increased the size of the Tungsten Carbide-Tipped head and added additional manufacture time to improve the tip setting process, we looked at the precision on the cuts of the head to allow for more efficiency for grinding. Our goal is to get the most use from item to improve the productivity of your workflow and maximise the effectiveness of your skilled team

At the inception of Ocean Footprint, we agreed to work with our most important customers, whom we like to call “partners”, and develop a range of products that are specifically designed to make the process of boat building cheaper, easier, and more efficient. With this range of TCT Burr Tools, we took a base product and looked at the way that the market leaders product was used. We listened and then made some simple well-considered adjustments to the product, tested the results and then refined our product until it met the exacting requirements of our partners. At every stage of our supply chain, we have done everything to maximise the product quality and at the same time adopted lean processes to reduce the cost. We are proud of what we have achieved here.

Our tungsten carbide-tipped rotary burrs (TCT), are made with an alloy steel body and tungsten carbide inserts brazed to the tips of the burr. These tips are ground on all surfaces to create tangential and radial clearance and provide the proper cutting and clearance angles on the burr. The tungsten carbide tip is capable of operating at much higher temperatures than solid HSS, therefore, TCT burr tools are usually run at much higher surface speeds. This allows carbide-tipped burrs to cut at faster rates and still maintain an acceptable chip load. These burrs are commonly used for cutting metals but have gained significant popularity for ferrous metal cutting applications in the last 10 years. The tungsten carbide inserts are extremely hard (98 HRC) and capable of very long wear life

Ocean Footprint has been working with our trusted partners and customers on a range of products that meet the requirements of boat building. We are working with some of the best engineers in the world to fine-tune our own product range to improve quality by 25% and offer a cost-saving of 15%, and with our Rotary Burr Tool range we have done just that
