Engraving cutter Pro D, Ø2 mm (solid carbide, 60° tip) — Werner Wilke

The Engraving cutter Pro D is a precision-ground solid‑carbide engraving tool designed for fine lettering, contour work and copy milling across steel, grey cast iron, non‑ferrous metals and plastics.

• Solid-carbide fine-grain K10/K20
• 60° precision-ground tip
• Ø2 mm with h6 diameter tolerance
• Suitable for steel, cast iron & plastics

High-precision carbide for consistent engraving results

Manufactured from solid carbide in fine‑grain K10/K20, this cutter delivers long tool life and stable edge retention under repetitive use. The fine‑grain microstructure reduces chipping and provides consistent cutting geometry, which translates into fewer tool changes and steady part quality. For production environments where repeatability matters, the precision-ground geometry reduces variation between tools and supports reliable machining cycles.

Sharp 60° tip for crisp lettering and contours

The 60° tip is engineered for crisp, narrow grooves and detailed engraving of characters and fine shapes. With a 3 mm cutting length, the geometry is optimised for shallow contouring and accurate depth control during copy milling operations. The pre‑sharpened edge (halfing pre-ground) shortens setup time and helps achieve clean edges on small radii without extensive finishing passes.

Versatile across common engineering materials

This cutter is specified for machining steel, grey cast iron, non‑ferrous metals and plastics, offering a single‑tool option for mixed‑material shops. The combination of material grade and tip geometry supports both manual and CNC engraving tasks where fine detail and surface integrity are required. When machining polymers or softer alloys, the fine‑grain carbide maintains form and reduces built‑up edge, improving surface finish on delicate features.

Accurate tolerances for predictable setups

With a nominal Ø2 mm shank and diameter tolerance h6, plus an overall length of 40 mm and length tolerance ±2 mm, the cutter enables reproducible tool offsets and reliable collet clamping. The specified tolerances simplify presetting and reduce time spent on trial cuts, supporting efficient fixture adjustments and faster first‑part approval in production workflows. The compact overall length also aids access to confined features during copy milling.

Practical benefits for workshop efficiency

By combining durable carbide, a defined tip angle and tight tolerances, the tool reduces downtime associated with frequent replacements and rework. The tool is particularly well suited to tasks that demand fine resolution—such as nameplates, control panel legends and precision mould markings—where legibility and edge quality are essential. Fewer finishing operations are required, which can lower cycle times and improve throughput for small detailed components.
