Introduced to the UK two years ago, the TaeguTec Chase2Mill series of end mill tools is now being extended with the arrival of two additional insert designations.

Designed for ramp and slot milling applications, Chase2Mill is available in end mill, modular or face mill designations. Initially launched with a four-corner, double-sided 4NKT 06 insert range featuring a 90° entry angle that is suitable for high ramp-down applications, the 4NKT 06 has been expanded and a newly developed 4NHT insert series released.
TaeguTec’s 4NKT 06 corner R range insert has been extended (04R-20R) to meet the wider range of corner radius requirements demanded by today’s industry. Adding to the existing 8 and 16 mm radius inserts, the company has expanded the line to include a 4, 12 and 20 mm radius offering. The extended 4NKT 06 is available with TaeguTec’s ML and M geometry, and the TT8080 and TT9080 grades, which combine to improve cutting load, minimise built-up-edge and generate high surface finish, says the company.
In addition, the 4NHT 06 insert designation has also been launched with the 4NHT 06-ML, which is said to be characterised by its ability to generate low cutting loads and high surface finishes (credit to ground cutting edges that minimise built-up-edge).
Another release is the 4NHT 06-AL series of uncoated inserts for aluminium and non-ferrous cutting applications.
