Shaft milling cutter R138TM – 16 mm shank, for RDMW 0702 indexable inserts (Teknik Makina)

The Shaft milling cutter R138TM is an indexable-insert milling body engineered for precision metalcutting on CNC machines, optimised for use with RDMW 0702 inserts in medium-to-high productivity operations

• 16 mm shank diameter for rigid clamping
• Compatible with RDMW 0702 indexable inserts
• Torx M2.5x5.5 fixing screw, T8 key required
• Two cutting edges with 40 mm cutting length

Increased machining stability for consistent cycle times

The R138TM's compact shank diameter of 16 mm and optimised body geometry deliver enhanced rigidity, making the tool suited to stable milling passes and predictable surface results. Fitted with two effective cutting edges, the design reduces vibration and supports steady feeds, which in turn improves tool life and repeatability on serial components. This configuration benefits production environments where consistent cycle times and reduced rework are priorities.

Low downtime through indexable-insert compatibility

This milling body is designed for quick servicing: it accepts RDMW 0702 indexable inserts and secures them with a M2.5x5.5 Torx screw, operated with a T8 key, enabling fast on-machine changes. The use of standardised inserts minimises inventory complexity and makes replacement straightforward, translating into measurable reductions in maintenance time. Compatibility with Taegutec inserts ensures access to widely available grades for different application demands.

Practical handling and integration into CNC workflows

With an overall length of 120 mm and a cutting length of 40 mm, the tool balances accessibility and reach while keeping overhang modest for better dynamic behaviour. The body weighs 0.148 kg, which aids in stable toolholding and reduced spindle load during high-speed operations. Intended as a precision milling solution, the cutter is suitable for integration into existing tool libraries and fixture setups; correct clamping and matching spindle interfaces remain essential for achieving the specified performance.
