Filed under Mitsubishi Carbide, Recent News

FH breaker displays optimum chip control over small cutting range, it employs a chip breaker dot and is best suited to finish cutting.
Technical Information:
  • FH chipbreaker is our first recommendation for finish machining of general and alloy steel
  • Double sided chipbreaker
  • Stable chip control even at small DOC
  • Can provide chip control at DOC@IPR from .010″@.001″ to .070″@.008″
  • Use cermet grades NX2525 and NX3035 for finest finishes, especially at low SFM’s
Applications to Target:
  • Finish machining of general and alloy steel
  • Where chip control is paramount such as when robotic handling of workpieces is employed
Benefits:
  • Chip control preventing part surface finish damage
  • Chip control allowing constant robotic part handling
  • Mitsubishi Materials Corporation has recently developed and manufactured new corner R0.2mm inserts for the FH breaker series for finishing. 
Additional Features of the FH breaker
  • A finishing breaker ensuring stable chip control even at small depths of cut and low feeds.
  • Inserts are available in CVD coated grades UE6110, UE6020, US735 and cermet grades NX2525 and NX3035.
