Mogul barsFor ID boring operations| Swiss CNC Lathes

Solves common issues associated with ID boring operations

Highly rigid bars and inserts that direct chips away from the part

Unique boring bar design greatly improves rigidity combined with chipbreakers that control the direction of the chip evacuation during the boring operation.

Features

  • Holder designed to ensure rigidity and eliminate vibrations
  • F1, F05, FG chipbreakers developed for blind hole applications to direct chips backward and out of the hole to prevent chip packing
  • Coolant through boring bars to support chip evacuation
