TiCN-Coated T-Slot Cutter Overview
This TiCN-coated solid carbide T-slot cutter is designed for machining T-slots and recessed side features in machine tables, fixture plates, clamps and industrial components. The precision-ground cutting profile supports controlled slot-width machining, while the solid carbide construction provides the rigidity required for side-cutting operations. TiCN coating is suited to ferrous-material applications including steel, alloy steel and cast iron. Standard cutter diameters range from D4–D12 mm with H0.5–H6 mm slot-width configurations, while non-standard profiles and dimensions can be reviewed according to drawings or samples.

Machine Table & Fixture Slotting Guidance
- Slot Width: Select H1 according to the required finished T-slot or fastening-slot width.
- Entry Clearance: Confirm that sufficient entry clearance is available before the cutter head enters a recessed T-slot feature.
- Side Engagement: Use controlled radial engagement according to cutter size, slot depth and workpiece material.
- Toolholding: Use a low-runout holder and the shortest practical overhang to maintain stable side-cutting conditions.
- Non-Standard Slots: Provide a component drawing or sample when the required T-slot differs from the standard D1 and H1 combinations.
