Providing an application drawing or sketch, the raw material details, and any other relevant information will help us assist you more effectively.

How to Select the Correct Tool-Holder and USPOT Insert to Match Your Application:

The USPOT inserts are available as semi-standard solutions tailored to customer applications.
  1. Choose the appropriate tool-holder based on the pilot hole diameter. For instance, if the pilot hole diameter is 8.5 mm, select the UX2080, which supports a minimum diameter (Ødmin) of 8 mm.
  2. Specify the required parameters for the USPOT insert, including the counter-bore or spotface diameter, corner radius, chip-former, and coating.
  3. Fill in the relevant details for the USPOT insert description as outlined in the specifications below.
  4. Ensure compatibility between the USPOT insert series and the corresponding UX tool-holder. The series of the insert must match the series of the tool-holder.
Notes:
  1. Coating – Our top recommendation is the NCT grade, featuring the versatile TiAlN PVD coating. It offers excellent thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and is compatible with a wide range of materials, including mild steels, stainless steel, and Inconel. For additional options, refer to the list of available coatings below.
  2. Tool-holders and inserts are sold separately.

USPOT- Ordering Special Inserts:

Here is an example of coding a special USPOT insert for the application shown on the right:
  1. Ød = 8.7mm (0.343″)
  2. ØD = 17.6mm (0.693″)
  3. R = 0.2mm (0.032″)
  4. Material: AISI 4340 / 34CrNiMo6 (1.6582) / SNCM439, tempered to 42 HRC
The recommended tool-holder is UX2080 / UX-d080-B-C16-H62-L115
The corresponding insert is US-d087-D176-B-R02-ML-NCT
Important Note:
Ensure that the pilot-hole length (L) is less than or equal to the RFC (Relief For Cutting) L⩽RFC ,as specified in the UBACK tool-holders table below.
