STARRETT – MACHINE LEVELS
98 Series Machinists’ Levels with ground & graduated vials. These vials are adjustable to a positive setting & are housed in a satin finished brass tube with a friction-fit closing cover to prevent breakage. The base of the levels features an involute groove running the length of the base, which provides a reliable seat for round work such as pipes or shafting. With the cross test vial, it is possible to simultaneously level in both directions. This prevents inaccuracies in the main vial reading caused by canting the level sidewise on round work.

QUICK CUT KNURLING TOOLS Maximum stability: The tool bodies used in the A1 series are mounted using backlash-free surface clamping. The vibrations caused by the machining process are reduced by backlash-free surface clamping and can be dampened more effectively which prolongs the service life of the knurling wheels. Reduced need for stock thanks to extreme versatility. Simple and precise fine adjustment of the tool body without the need for dismantling Compact size.
• Compatible with all current conventional and CNC machinery • Available individually & in kit form to suit your application • Precisely manufactured components will create the very best in cross, diamond, straight and spiral knurls with pitch range from 0.4 - 2.0mm on workpieces 3-250mm diameter. • 10, 12, 16, 20 & 25mm shanks

INDEXABLE TUNGSTEN CARBIDE INSERTS We often get asked about the differences between one carbide grade and another, which grade should be used on which materials and what advantage one has over another. To answer some of these questions we will start to talk about carbide inserts, the grades, types of inserts and their applications. Q. How are Tungsten Carbide Inserts made? A. The method of manufacture is generally known as powder metallurgy. In its simplest composition it is a product of a hard material (Tungsten Carbide) and a binder (Cobalt) sintered together. The Carbide and Cobalt powders are mixed so that the hard carbide grains are coated with a thin film of cobalt binder. The powder is then pressed into shape in moulds. The inserts are then loaded into the sintering furnace where densification and shrinkage take place. The art of making carbide inserts consists to a great extent in calculating the size of the finished insert as shrinkage of approx. 17% occurs during sintering. This accurate calculation combined with precise die making techniques, often enables finished inserts to be produced after sintering, thus eliminating the need for expensive grinding operations. Q. What is the difference from one grade to another? A. By altering the proportion of Carbide and Cobalt the properties of the finished insert alter. The more carbide added to the mix results in a harder product and the more cobalt means a tougher product. With the addition of coatings, which permit high cutting speeds, new substrate carbides have been developed to withstand high temperatures, higher toughness, and resistance to deformation and thermal shock or cracking. Q. What are the coatings on the inserts and what do they do? A. Most inserts are coated after being sintered. These coatings are multiple layers of material including Titanium Nitride (TiN), Aluminium Oxide (Al2O3), Titanium Aluminium Nitride (TiAlN) and Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN). These coatings give the carbide an extended application range and more resistance to factors that cause the inserts to fail. Among the advantages of coatings are lower cutting forces, increased wear resistance and less tendency of built up edge. The improved wear resistance can be used to increase tool life, but from an economical point of view, it is often more favourable to increase speeds and feeds to get a higher metal removal rate. Q. How do you tell the difference from one grade to another? A. To make it easier to classify carbides the ISO standard was introduced which gives a general classification of grades. It is divided into three main groups, P, M & K. P - Refers to Steel machining and is coded Blue. M - Refers to machining Stainless Steel and is coded Yellow. K - Refers to Cast Iron materials and is coded Red. Each group has sub-groups designated by a numerical scale. The higher the figure of the sub-group, the greater the toughness of the carbide. However a demand for toughness is always made at the expense of hardness (wear resistance). As mentioned earlier, with the technology that is in the inserts of today, it is possible to get inserts which will machine in all three material areas. The complete ISO table also includes classification of Aluminium and other Non-Ferrous materials (Green), Iron, Copper, Titanium and Nickel based Superalloys (Brown) and Hard and Difficult High Strength Steels (Grey). Q. Does this standard give me exactly what I want? A. Although the ISO classification is a method by which carbides manufacturers may designate their various grades, it was not intended to represent a comparative table of carbide grades. Grades classified in the same group by different manufacturers may differ from one another in composition, hardness, toughness or cutting performance. The ISO system offers a basic choice for general machining, for a more specialized application or for a grade selection to achieve optimum performance in your workshop, contact your Trade Tools Sales Engineer or your nearest Trade Tools Branch.
