Custom Cutting Tools
Custom cutting tools made to your drawing, sample or machining requirements.
When Standard Tools Don’t Fit
A standard cutter may be close to the required tool, but its diameter, reach, step geometry or cutting profile can still prevent it from working in the actual application.
Non-standard Diameter
When the required cutting or shank diameter is not available as a standard size.
Extended Reach or Long Neck
For deep cavities, restricted access or machining features beyond standard reach.
Multiple-step Geometry
When several diameters, shoulders or depths need to be combined into one cutting tool.
Special Radius or Taper
For non-standard corner radii, taper angles or transition geometries required by the part.
Special Cutting Profile
For chamfers, grooves, form profiles and other cutting geometries matched to the workpiece.
Application-specific Geometry
When flute design, clearance or cutting geometry needs to be adapted to the machining application.

Contact Our TeamCustom Material & Coating Options
Tool material, carbide grade, and coating can be customized based on the workpiece material, cutting conditions, and required tool life.
Tool Material Options
Solid carbide, HSS and PCD options can be reviewed according to the tool geometry, application and production requirements.
Application-Specific Coatings
TiAlN / AlTiN, TiSiN, DLC, AlCrN and uncoated or polished options can be selected according to workpiece material, cutting temperature and machining requirements.
Workpiece Material Matching
Tool grade, geometry and coating can be matched to steel, stainless steel, hardened materials, aluminum and other workpiece materials for more stable machining.
Material & Coating Confirmation
Material and coating specifications are confirmed with the customer before production.
Precision & Tolerance Control
Critical dimensions, profile geometry, and runout are controlled according to the tolerances specified in the approved drawing or tool specification.
Critical Dimensions
Cutting diameter, shank diameter, step length, and neck length are manufactured and inspected according to the specified dimensional tolerances.
Profile & Geometry
Radii, tapers, steps, chamfers, and custom profiles are inspected according to the specified dimensional and geometric tolerances.
Runout & Final Inspection
Runout, concentricity, critical dimensions, and overall tool condition are verified against the approved inspection requirements before packing and shipment.

Questions About Custom Tooling
Practical answers about custom geometry, tolerances, samples and trial adjustments.
Can you manufacture complex tool geometries?
Yes. We can review steps, special radii, tapers, long-neck sections, form tools and other non-standard geometries based on your drawing, sample or application.
Can you meet tight dimensional tolerances?
Yes. Achievable tolerances depend on tool type, size and critical dimensions. Send us your drawing or tolerance requirements for review.
View Manufacturing & QualityCan you reproduce a tool from a physical sample?
Yes. If a complete drawing is unavailable, you can send an existing tool or sample for dimensional and geometry review.
Submit Your Tool RequestCan you modify an existing tool design?
Yes. Dimensions, reach, profile, flute geometry and other features can be adjusted around a new machining requirement.
Can I start with a small trial quantity?
Yes. Small trial quantities are available for many custom tools, depending on the tool type, material and manufacturing requirements.
Can the tool be adjusted after the first trial?
Yes. Dimensions, geometry or cutting performance can be reviewed and adjusted before the next production batch.
