Thinbit, manufactured by Kaiser Tool, has expanded its Groove ’N Turn line of dovetail grooving inserts, which are used to machine O-ring dovetail grooves with 66-degree undercut angles. The insert design uses an insert pair to generate the groove form. Inserts are available in 0.03", 0.05", 0.06", 0.07", 0.08", 0.09", 0.1", 0.125" and 0.15" sizes with major diameters starting at 0.3". The inserts are available in sub-micron-grain carbide grades for ferrous and nonferrous materials, either uncoated or with TiN, TiCN, TiAIN or diamond-film coatings. The products can be used on conventional, Swiss and CNC machines.
Toolholders are available in square shank sizes ranging from 5/16" to 1 ¼" and round shank sizes ranging from ½" through 1", with straight and 90-degree presentations. The inserts fit existing “L” series Thinbit toolholders.
