T-slot cutter TKC306TM — 55 mm diameter, 25 mm shank (Teknik Makina)

A T-slot cutter designed for precision T-slot and round milling in CNC and conventional milling machines, offering sturdy shank support and insert interchangeability for industrial production environments

• 55 mm diameter for T-slot shaping
• 25 mm shank for rigid toolholding
• Compatible with Korloy MGM 5C inserts
• Robust two-edge configuration

Stable machining through rigid geometry and shank design

The cutter combines a 25 mm shank with a balanced body and a 120 mm overall length to reduce run-out and vibration during T-slot formation. This geometry enhances surface finish and extends tool life by maintaining a consistent cutting line, which is particularly important when slot tolerances are tight. The tool’s mass distribution and 0.513 kg weight support steady spindle loads, enabling reliable cycle times and fewer reworks in series production.

Insert system and fast serviceability for minimal downtime

Designed for use with Korloy MGM 5C indexable inserts, the cutter simplifies reconditioning: worn inserts are replaced without regrinding the tool body. The secure fixing with an M8 Torx screw and supplied 6 Allen key specification ensures repeatable clamping torque and quick changeover. With 2 cutting edges and a 5 mm cutting height, material removal can be efficient while preserving insert life; this configuration supports predictable chip flow and reduces the need for complex coolant strategies.

Application versatility and process reliability in industrial settings

As a round milling solution, the tool handles both standard T-slots and related profile milling tasks, delivering consistent dimensional control across batches. The measured distance from cutting edge to shank (15.25 mm) gives a clear datum for setup, aiding fixture design and repeatability on jigs or CNC vises. The combination of indexable inserts and a sturdy shank reduces tooling inventory complexity while keeping machining costs manageable for workshops and production lines focused on throughput and precision.
