R208TM indexable milling cutter – Ø 40 mm, 4‑flute (Teknik Makina)

R208TM is an indexable milling cutter designed for medium‑duty milling tasks using RDMT 1003 inserts, combining a secure shank with easy insert replacement for reduced downtime.

• Compatible with RDMT 1003 indexable inserts
• Ø 40 mm cutting diameter
• Four cutting edges for balanced performance
• Shank Ø 32 mm for secure clamping

Consistent cutting performance for productive milling

The body is engineered to deliver steady metal removal while preserving surface quality. With a Ø 40 mm cutting diameter and four cutting edges, the tool provides a balance between material removal rate and surface finish — ideal for repeatable operations on production runs. The indexable design allows worn inserts to be replaced quickly, minimising machine idle time and lowering per‑part tooling cost. Emphasis on predictable chip evacuation helps maintain cycle times and process stability.

Secure clamping and clear mounting benefits

A solid shank Ø 32 mm ensures reliable clamping in standard toolholders, reducing run‑out and vibration during operation. The overall length of 150 mm and a cutting length of 45 mm give a compact but capable tool geometry that suits both tight setups and conventional milling stations. Fastener specifications such as M3.5 locking screw and M3.5x8.5 Torx screw (Torx key T15) support secure insert fastening and straightforward maintenance procedures.

Practical compatibility and everyday usability

This cutter is specified for use with RDMT 1003 indexable inserts, enabling straightforward selection of insert grades for different applications. The replaceable insert system simplifies inventory management: one cutter body can serve multiple cutting tasks by changing insert grades for wear resistance or chip control. The tool’s design supports efficient changeover and keeps tooling complexity low in busy workshops.

Durability and workshop integration

Weighing approximately 0.967 kg, the cutter offers a robust feel without excessive mass, aiding handling and tool balance. The construction supports routine workshop practices: quick insert replacement, standard Torx maintenance, and compatibility with established clamping systems. When combined with Metav’s supply chain and quality control, this cutter contributes to uninterrupted production and dependable stock availability for professionals.

FAQ

What inserts are compatible with this cutter?
The R208TM cutter is specified for RDMT 1003 indexable inserts; these can be selected in suitable grades for the desired wear resistance and chip control.

How is the cutter clamped in the spindle?
Clamping relies on the shank Ø 32 mm dimension; standard toolholders for a 32 mm shank are recommended to maintain concentricity and minimise run‑out.

Can the inserts be changed on the shop floor?
Yes — the cutter uses replaceable indexable inserts secured by an M3.5 locking screw and M3.5x8.5 Torx screw (Torx key T15) for quick, workshop‑friendly replacement.

What machining tasks suit this tool best?
The body’s Ø 40 mm diameter and four cutting edges make it suitable for general milling operations where RDMT 1003 inserts are appropriate, offering a compromise between material removal rate and surface finish.

Is the cutter supplied by a recognised manufacturer?
The R208TM is produced by Teknik Makina and supplied with commercial distribution and support via Metav Werkzeuge for reliable delivery to European workshops.
