Gravierstichel Pro A D.2mm — engraving cutter, solid carbide, precision-ground

Gravierstichel Pro A D.2mm is a compact engraving cutter designed for fine lettering, contour work and copy milling across a range of engineering materials

• Solid carbide, fine-grain K10/K20
• Precision-ground with straight cutting edge
• Ideal for steel, cast iron, non‑ferrous metals, plastics
• Diameter tolerance h6, length tolerance ±2 mm

Precise geometry for repeatable engraving results

The tool’s precision-ground profile delivers consistent geometry along the flute, which translates into uniform cuts and predictable tool life. Manufactured from solid carbide (fine-grain K10/K20), the shank and cutting portion maintain rigidity at small diameters, reducing chatter during high-precision engraving operations. For workshop planners this means fewer rejects and less rework when producing small lettering or intricate contours.

Reliable performance across common workshop materials

Thanks to the carbide grade and the straight cutting edge that is halfing pre-sharpened, the cutter is suitable for machining steel, grey cast iron, non‑ferrous metals and plastics. The balanced combination of material and cutter geometry enables clean edges when producing letters and delicate outlines, and supports light copy‑milling tasks where detail fidelity is essential. This tool therefore bridges the gap between hobby engraving and professional small‑part detailing.

Dimensional control that supports automated processes

With a nominal diameter of 2 mm, a 3 mm cutting length and a strict h6 diameter tolerance plus ±2 mm overall length tolerance, the cutter is engineered for predictable integration into CNC and manual engraving setups. Consistent dimensions reduce setup time and permit tighter process windows on automated equipment. The small halving tolerance of +0.1 mm on the pre-sharpened centreline also simplifies tool change calibration and repeatability in production runs.

Practical advantages for procurement and daily use

The compact overall length of 40 mm and the small diameter make the tool easy to handle and store while offering high local stiffness for fine detail work. Being precision-ground and produced from a fine-grain carbide reduces the need for frequent re‑grinding in light-duty applications, translating into lower operating interruptions. For workshop managers seeking dependable engraving performance, the cutter represents a technically sound choice that aligns with routine manufacturing workflows.
