Chipbreakers handle exotics and stainless steel alloys.

Press Release Summary:



General-purpose EEG, intended for roughing applications, features ball-shaped projection breakers. Two-step cutting edge at front reduces crater wear and produces optimal surface finish when machining exotics and stainless steel alloys. Wear resistance and chip control help reduce lead-time and increase productivity. Also available, EEF is designed for chip control during finishing operations. Slot on rake face reduces heat generation and extends tool life, while 20° cutting edge reduces wear.

Sumitomo Electric Carbide, Inc. Offers New Chipbreakers for Exotics and Stainless Steel Alloys



Mount Prospect, IL – Sumitomo Electric Carbide, Inc. has expanded its lineup to include EEG and EEF Chipbreakers for exotics and stainless steel alloys.



Designed for roughing applications, the EEG Chipbreaker features ball-shaped projection breakers for enhanced chip control. A two-step cutting edge at the front of this general-purpose breaker reduces crater wear and produces a superior surface finish when machining exotics and stainless steel alloys. The EEG performs with high wear resistance and chip control, reducing lead-time and increasing productivity.



The EEF Chipbreaker has been developed and thoroughly tested for high chip control during finishing operations. A unique slot on the rake face reduces heat generation and extends tool life, while a 20º cutting edge reduces wear.
