-Designed for 3D contouring and chamfering at the fastest possible speed and feed rates, POW-R-ARC cuts and finishes in hardened metals up to 62 HRc, aluminum, stainless steel, low carbon steel, and super alloys such as high nickel alloys, cobalt chrome and titanium.
-Available with 6 or 8 flutes, POW-R-ARC cutters feature advanced geometries, free-cutting design and a next-generation coating for faster feed rates, greater lubricity and reliable chip clearance in most materials.
-Increasing the flutes from the traditional 4-flute tools to 6 or 8 flutes dramatically increases speed and feeds. POW-R-ARC provides a great finish with a second pass. So, no stopping to change tools. No need to even stock dedicated finishing tools. And tests show POW-R-ARC lasts much, much longer.”
-The POW-R-ARC works well in machines with lower-max-speed spindles as well as high rpm machines. The unique geometry evacuates the chips, reducing the chances of loading up, even at a lower rpm. Long necks can be ordered for working in pockets and around mold guide pins.
POW-R-ARC also is ideal for 5-axis machines, with the added number of effective cutting flutes going from the OD all the way to the tip of the tool.
