Screw-in cutter VT224TM – for APMT 0903 indexable inserts, 15° cutting angle (Teknik Makina)

The screw-in cutter VT224TM is a compact milling solution designed for finishing and general steel machining with APMT 0903 indexable inserts, offering a balance of rigidity and accessibility in confined setups

• Compact 16 mm diameter design
• 15° cutting angle for fine finishing
• M8 thread, 25 mm engagement
• Compatible with APMT 0903 Korloy inserts
• Lightweight 0.04 kg for easy handling

Higher-quality finishes with reduced cutting forces

A small radial approach is achieved through the 15° cutting angle, which reduces engagement stress and supports smoother transitions on machined surfaces. The 16 mm diameter combined with two cutting edges enables a controlled finish pass rather than aggressive stock removal, so cycle times are optimised when a high surface quality is required. In practical terms, this geometry lowers the risk of chatter and improves tool life, particularly in interrupted or shoulder milling where stability is paramount.

Reliable clamping and straightforward assembly

Secure fixation is ensured by the M8 thread with 25 mm engagement and the supplied M2.5x5.5 Torx screw, tightened with a T7 key, giving predictable clamping repeatability for indexable inserts. The low mass of 0.04 kg minimises centrifugal load at higher spindle speeds and simplifies handling during tool changes. These features translate into faster set-ups and fewer corrective adjustments on the machine, reducing downtime and supporting steady production flow.

Broad compatibility for workshop flexibility

Designed for use with APMT 0903 indexable inserts and compatible with Korloy grades, the tool supports common insert choices for steel machining and finishing operations. The tool’s overall length of 41 mm and a cutting height of 16 mm make it suitable for compact toolholders and tight-stack assemblies without sacrificing cutting capacity. When combined with appropriate insert selection, the system offers consistent chip formation and efficient material removal in finishing cycles.
