I'm looking to buy some indexable tooling and would appreciate some
advice. Initially I just want a 10 mm RH tool - but what sort of tips?
Near-square, diamond, triangular, round? I know tips come with 4-letter
codes, but what 4 letters should I be looking for?
Something common, so tips are readily available in different materials,
and so on.
I was looking at the Glanze ones Chronos sell, any good? Is that a CCMT
tip? Is CCMT a good choice?

Peter,
J&L have a chart in their catalogue, which shows how all the various
letters and numbers relate to the geometry of the tip, probably scan it in
for you if you can't find it on the website.

Go to pages 342 & 343 of the virtual catalogue
I Have the CCMT tips for both RH, LH and a couple of boring bars, also
have the 6mm round rofileing tool but it does not get a lot of use.
Going to get one of the tools that allows the two spare corners to be
used for roughing next time I order frm Chronos, seems a shame to
waste the cutters.

Please log in for more thread options Hi Jason
Just wondering which tool from chronos allows the use of the unused
corners of the ccmt tip?
I have a couple of the glanze 10mm ccmt tools and find them very good.
I use the RH tool lots and the 50 degree chamfer tool is also useful.
Cheers
Paul
