T-slot cutter TKC298TM — 40 mm diameter, 2 cutting edges (Teknik Makina)

The T-slot cutter TKC298TM is a precision milling tool designed for producing and finishing T‑slots in fixtures and machine tables, offering stable clamping and compatibility with Korloy indexable inserts.

40 mm diameter for standard T‑slots
25 mm shank for secure clamping
Two cutting edges for smooth surfaces
Compatible with Korloy indexable inserts

Precise geometry for clean T‑slot profiles and high material removal rates

The cutter’s 40 mm diameter combined with a compact head profile delivers consistent T‑slot dimensions while reducing the number of passes required. The tool’s two cutting edges are optimised to balance cutting force and surface finish, which helps to limit chatter in horizontal and vertical milling operations. For those less familiar with tool geometry: fewer, well‑sharpened edges often mean easier chip evacuation and a better surface on the flanks of the slot. This results in a more predictable machining process and reduced rework.

Robust shank and length for vibration resistance and reliable clamping

A 25 mm shank provides a substantial contact area for collet or chuck mounting, improving rigidity during plunge and peripheral milling. The 170 mm overall length offers reach for deeper setups without compromising stability when properly clamped. Greater rigidity directly supports dimensional repeatability and prolongs insert life, so production runs remain consistent. The combination of shank diameter and tool length helps to keep run‑out low, which is crucial when producing tight‑tolerance slots.

Serviceable insert system and maintenance simplicity

The cutter is prepared for indexable inserts from Korloy, enabling quick insert changes and cost‑effective edge renewal. The cutter head accepts standard screws tightened with a 6 mm Allen key, so maintenance and insert replacement are straightforward on the shop floor. Using indexable inserts reduces downtime compared with resharpening solid heads and allows selection of grades tailored to the workpiece material and cutting conditions, giving production planners flexibility without requiring new tool bodies.

Designed for workshop efficiency and predictable results

The tool’s compact head and two‑edge configuration aim to reduce cycle times while maintaining a quality surface on the slot flanks, supporting lean production goals. By prioritising mechanical stability and a proven insert platform, the cutter helps mills and toolrooms streamline tooling stock and simplify procurement decisions. Where compliance and traceability matter, the clear designation and SKU support inventory control and reordering.
