August 01, 2014

Lovejoy Tool Co. Inc. announces the new MaxCut 651 cutters utilizing new chip gullet design combined with thick inserts (0.250") for continuous heavy-duty work, resulting in high metal-removal rates. The inserts feature 45° lead angle for free cutting and easier part entry, superb corner strength and are available in medium pitch configurations for general machining and fine pitch for short chip materials like cast iron.

In addition, the 16 cutting edges assures greater production at lower cost. The cutter bodies feature a new insert adjusting station that reportedly allows for faster, more accurate insert positioning, resulting in optimal cutting efficiency. The 651 series cutters are available in diameters from 3" and up.
