� Stable chip control in a wide range of applications from medium to finishing
due to the newly developed "Flat Zone" (Breaking Area) and a 4135
2-step smooth rising Smart Wall effect vc=650sfm WET

� Twin dots on the edge tip provide smooth chip control at low depths of cut
and higher feed rates

� Specially designed Positive Land with a well-balanced combination of edge
sharpness and toughness

Twin Dots
Feed Rate f(ipr)

2-step Smart Wall (2-step smooth rising surface)

Excellent chip control in a wide range of applications prevents
the dots from being damaged at high feed machining

• Efficient chipbreaking for a wide range of applications

Flat Zone Continuously Variable Land (CVL)

(Breaking Area) Specially Designed Positive Land
Positive land with a well-balanced
combination of sharpness and toughness

Prevents chip entanglement and reduces cutting forces at higher feed rates
