When a single tool is needed for machining different materials, very often a specific tool geometry doesn’t do the job. Therefore, the SCT Tools range contains a wide selection of tools suitable for machining multiple materials.

Steel and cast iron together form the biggest part of the materials within the metalworking industry. The SCT Tools program holds a very wide range of high-quality solid carbide end mills and drills covering every application within those material groups.

The machining of hardened steels requires the optimum combination of high-quality carbide, rigid geometries as well as durable coatings. SCT Tools’ high quality end mill line for hardened steels sets a new standard when it comes to tool life and surface finish.

Great challenges arise when machining stainless steels, titanium, Inconel or other heat-resistant alloys. From managing heat generation, avoiding extensive tool wear and creating a superb surface finish on the end product, each individual SCT Tools tool has all the technical specifications needed for the job.

Fast, Faster, Fastest. Machining non-ferro materials is about providing the tool that can machine at the highest RPM’s, while leaving the best surface finish without having to worry about sticking of the material to the tool.

Productivity and cost per component (CPC) should go hand in hand when it comes to weighing a cutting tool’s quality. When machining abrasive materials such as graphite or composites, tool life and CPC even increase in importance as tools wear out quite fast when they are not optimally designed for the job.
