T-slot cutter for TCMT 16T3 — 32 mm, internal coolant (Teknik Makina)

A T-slot cutter for TCMT 16T3 indexable inserts, engineered for precise T-slot machining in fixtures and workholding applications.

• 32 mm diameter for precise T-slots
• Internal coolant for improved chip evacuation
• Compatible with TCMT 16T3 indexable inserts
• 25 mm shank for stable clamping

Enhanced cutting performance for precise T-slots

The T-slot cutter TKC170TM combines a 32 mm diameter with a 25 mm shank and a 55° cutting angle to deliver stable, repeatable T-slot profiles. Two well-balanced cutting edges ensure even load distribution and reduced vibration, which supports consistent surface finish and dimensional fidelity. The design concentrates on material removal efficiency and process reliability, making it suitable for repetitive fixture work where tolerance adherence is essential.

Optimised coolant routing reduces thermal load and wear

Equipped with internal coolant, the tool channels coolant directly to the cutting zone to aid chip evacuation and reduce heat generation at the insert edge. This targeted cooling helps maintain cutting edge integrity and prolong tool life, particularly in continuous or high-feed operations. For workshops seeking measurable improvements in machining stability, the coolant routing translates into fewer unplanned stops and a steadier production flow.

Secure insert clamping and straightforward service for fast changeovers

Insert retention uses a T15 Torx key and an M3.5x8.5 fastening screw to secure TCMT 16T3 inserts reliably. The cutter’s 150 mm overall length and 50 mm cutting length provide sufficient reach while remaining compact enough for rigid clamping. Maintenance and insert replacement are straightforward, minimising downtime during routine service. Clear mechanical fixation supports repeatable seating and consistent cutting conditions.

Purpose-built for fixtures, jigs and repetitive milling tasks

At a manageable weight of 0.508 kg, the body balances rigidity with handling convenience, making the tool suitable for both production and repair tasks in workshop environments. With 2 cutting edges, the cutter offers a compromise between efficient chip removal and economical insert usage. Technical advice is available for adapting cutting parameters to specific materials and setups, ensuring the cutter delivers dependable results in regular T-slot milling operations.
