The latest addition to the Carmex Type B line includes a variety of 11mm inserts for internal thread turning and chamfering operations. Designed for Swiss-style and other precision machining operations, the inserts are engineered from BMA sub-micrograin grade (K20-K30, P20-P40) with advanced PVD coating for high wear and heat resistance in a wide range of materials and are available in most common thread profiles and thread pitch ranges.

Jeff Dei, President of Carmex USA, comments: "Our specially engineered profile is precision ground so as to provide the highest quality threads with superior finish, thanks to reduced cutting forces. The sintered chip-breaker improves chip control and flow, and the inserts are usable for most common materials. The new Type B line represents an example of Carmex's continuing commitment to its ever-growing line of tooling for Swiss-style machining. We see a wide variety of applications for these inserts in such areas as medical appliances and tools, communications equipment, aeronautics and defense, and others."
