20mm Milling Cutter For RDMT 1003 Indexable Inserts, 2 Flutes 55mm Cutting Length - Teknik Makina

Take advantage of a robust, insert-based milling system that combines stable clamping and efficient chip removal for predictable cycle times. The tool’s 20 mm shank and 55 mm effective cutting length deliver steady rigidity and cutting capacity, while compatibility with RDMT 1003 indexable inserts reduces tool change downtime — order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the specialists for application support.

Shank cutter for RDMT 1003 indexable inserts — 20 mm shank · 2 flutes · Teknik Makina

The shank cutter for RDMT 1003 indexable inserts is a precision milling tool designed for high-feed operations on CNC milling centres and machining stations.

• Insert-compatible RDMT 1003 system
• 20 mm shank for stable clamping
• 55 mm effective cutting length
• Two cutting edges for high feed rates

Increased productivity through insert-based milling

The insert-based design provides a clear productivity advantage: the ability to change cutting edges rapidly without removing the tool body reduces machine downtime and improves overall equipment effectiveness. With a 20 mm shank and 2 flutes, the cutter offers a balance between rigidity and chip evacuation, enabling higher feed per tooth while maintaining tool life. The measured 55 mm effective cutting length supports longer axial engagements, so fewer tool changes are required during batch runs.

Secure clamping and predictable run-out for precise finishing

A defined clamping diameter and solid mechanical fixing ensure consistent concentricity and low run-out, which is crucial when working to tight tolerances. The tool uses an M3.5 locking screw and a M3.5x8.5 Torx screw tightened with a T15 key, delivering reliable insert retention and repeatable seating. The resulting stability translates into improved surface finish and dimensional control, particularly on small- to medium-diameter features where vibration must be minimised.

Low-maintenance handling and serviceability

The modular nature of the insert system simplifies maintenance: worn inserts are replaced quickly, while the holder remains in service, reducing inventory costs for spare tools. At only 0.265 kg and with a total length of 120 mm, the cutter is light enough for efficient tool changes yet substantial enough to resist deflection during heavier cuts. Clear specifications for screw sizes and the Torx key help workshop technicians perform fast, correct servicing without guesswork.

Application scope and material guidance

Designed for use with RDMT 1003 indexable inserts, this shank cutter suits a range of milling tasks where consistent geometry and throughput are priorities. The two-flute geometry promotes effective chip flow at elevated feed rates, making the tool well suited to semi-finishing and finishing operations on common engineering materials. For specific material allowances and cutting data, pairing the cutter with the appropriate insert grade will determine final performance and surface quality.

FAQ

What insert type does this cutter accept?
The shank cutter accepts RDMT 1003 indexable inserts; compatibility is central to the tool’s modular design and quick-change workflow.

Which clamping and tool-retention parts are required for servicing?
Servicing requires the M3.5 locking screw and M3.5x8.5 Torx screw; a T15 Torx key is used for correct tightening on the Teknik Makina shank cutter (SKU R190TM).

What are the key dimensions to check before mounting?
Confirm the 20 mm shank diameter, 55 mm effective cutting length and 120 mm total length to ensure correct holder fit and sufficient stick-out for the intended operation.

Is the cutter suitable for high-feed milling?
Yes. The two-flute geometry and insert system support elevated feed rates when combined with appropriate insert grades and machining parameters for the material.
