BORING TOOLS
Creating precision holes is among the most fundamental functions of machining. It can also be among the most technically demanding. Machining a hole to the precise diameter, depth and angle required and finishing it to spec necessitate selecting the right tools for each step of the process.
Knight Carbide’s single-point boring tools and carbide boring inserts are engineered for superior performance and longer tool life. Precision-ground to improve chip removal and cutting edge strength, our carbide turning and boring tool inserts are available in industry-standard and special radii. Additionally, Knight Carbide fabricates micro IC inserts and round, single-point stick boring tools.
With the positioning, geometry and surface finish characteristics defined, Knight Carbide can supply you with the means to bore a hole in any viable workpiece. From a pre-drilled initial hole, rough boring tools are applied to bring the bore roughly to the desired diameter, leaving just enough stock for effective finishing. During rough boring, a Knight Carbide single-point tool will achieve maximum material extraction, clearing the way for fine boring or reaming to bring the hole to its final diameter and finish.
Knight Carbide boring heads, bridge bars and inserts are designed for maximum efficiency and versatility with minimal deflection and vibration.
ROUGH BORING
Knight Carbide rough boring tools extract material quickly as you widen an existing hole to its intended diameter, preparing it for finishing.
FINE BORING
Built for strength and accuracy, Knight Carbide fine boring tools are exceptionally rigid, to maintain precision finishing for close-tolerance results.
