Sunnen Offers DirectDex line to Replace Sandvik Deep-Hole Drilling Tools
DirectDex line of drill heads and consumables are compatible and directly interchangeable with Sandvik’s CoroDrill 800 deep-hole drilling tools.
Sunnen Products Co. now offers a new series of drill heads, inserts and pads that are directly interchangeable with Sandvik deep-hole drilling tools. The new line, Sunnen DirectDex, features BTA/STS (single tube system) and DTS/ejector (double tube system) style deep-hole drilling tools designed to produce a low cost-per-bore with consistent performance. The new product series directly corresponds to the previously available line of Sandvik drill heads, inserts and guide pads, with additional product series set to be released soon.
CVD- and PVD-coated inserts are available in two grades, providing excellent wear resistance and toughness, Sunnen says. The CVD-coated inserts are especially useful for machining heat-resistant super alloys and also work well with ISO P, K, H and N materials. The PVD-coated inserts are specifically designed for ISO P, K, H and N materials, and also provide resistance against built-up edges.
