50mm Round Insert Milling Cutter for RDMT 1003 Indexable Inserts, 5 Teeth, 22mm Shank Diameter - Teknik Makina

Take advantage of a compact, rigid milling solution that combines a Ø 50 mm diameter and 5 cutting edges for higher material removal per revolution, while the 22 mm shank and 40 mm overall length ensure stable clamping and repeatable results; order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or request advice from our consultants.

Round Insert Milling Cutter — indexable face mill, Ø 50 mm, 5 cutting edges | Teknik Makina

A robust Round Insert Milling Cutter engineered for indexable‑insert milling with RDMT 1003 inserts; designed for stable finishing and general purpose milling in production and workshop environments

• Ø 50 mm cutter body
• Five cutting edges for increased productivity
• 22 mm shank for rigid clamping
• Compatible with RDMT 1003 indexable inserts

Better cutting performance in a compact tool

The compact diameter and multi‑edge concept deliver a practical balance between cutting capacity and stability. The Ø 50 mm body combined with 5 cutting edges reduces the cutting load per tooth, which can lead to smoother chip formation and improved surface finish in many indexable milling operations. For users less familiar with insert technology: RDMT style inserts are reversible, indexable carbide plates that can be rotated or changed quickly, so the tool stays productive with minimal downtime. This approach supports efficient series machining where consistent surface quality is required.

Stability and repeatability for tighter tolerances

A substantial 22 mm shank and a short 40 mm overall length provide a rigid connection between the spindle and the cutting head, limiting vibration during cutting. Reduced deflection contributes to more consistent dimensions across batches and simplifies process set‑up on both CNC machines and milling centres. The tool’s balance—at about 0.302 kg—aids in predictable dynamic behaviour, which is particularly relevant for high spindle speeds or when reproducing the same programme across multiple workpieces.

Serviceable fastening for quick maintenance

Fast, standardised clamping elements make routine servicing straightforward: the cutter uses a M3,5 locking screw together with a M3,5x8,5 Torx screw, compatible with a T15 Torx key. These standard thread and drive sizes permit quick insert changes and controlled tightening torque without specialised equipment, shortening tool change cycles and keeping machines productive. Clear identification of screw types also helps maintenance teams order correct fasteners and replacement parts without delay.

Versatile tool for indexable insert applications

Engineered for insert‑based milling, this indexable cutter suits a wide range of workshop tasks where the flexibility of replaceable carbide inserts is desired. The design prioritises straightforward handling and rapid insert replacement over complex geometries, making it a reliable choice for both prototyping and production. With established insert standards, the cutter integrates easily into existing tooling systems and contributes to lower tooling overhead through the reuse of inserts until wear limits are reached.

FAQ

What insert type does this cutter use?
The tool is designed for RDMT 1003 indexable inserts; RDMT‑style plates are compatible with the cutter’s pocket and clamp arrangement.

Which shank diameter is required for stable clamping?
The cutter features a 22 mm shank to ensure rigid mounting and repeatable positioning in standard toolholders.

How many cutting edges are available and what is the benefit?
This indexable cutter has 5 cutting edges, which distribute the load across more teeth and can improve surface finish and productivity in many milling operations.

What fastening components are used for inserts?
Insert retention uses a M3,5 locking screw together with a M3,5x8,5 Torx screw; the drive size is T15 for controlled tightening.

What is the article number for ordering or reference?
