Introducing the Pramet Econ LN square shoulder milling cutter from Dormer Pramet. Its positive axial geometry reportedly allows for lower cutting forces and smoother machining.

The universal 90° cutter is designed for multipurpose operations, including facemilling, shoulder milling and slotting. With an internal cooling system near the cutting edges, the Econ LN delivers easy cooling and chip evacuation and excellent surface finish.

Compatible with the Econ LN are the LNGX 12 and LNGU 16 inserts with four cutting edges. The LNGX 12 inserts support helical interpolation, ramping and progressive plunging while the LNGU 16 inserts are strong and robust for long tool life.

The Econ LN is suitable for cutting steel, cast iron, stainless steel, nonferrous and hardened materials.
