Boring Bars and Tooling Components Overview
1. Boring Bars for RIGIBORE and MICROBORE Cartridges
Diameters from 22 mm to 181 mm, lengths 9–12 mm, featuring a 53º 8' angle and dial scale graduated at 0.01 mm radius for precise adjustment. Special rings available for angular positioning. Cartridges supplied on request.
2. Adapters for SANDVIK COROMANT Inserts
Diameters 80–250 mm, lengths 9–13 mm, facilitating use of standardized inserts to expand tooling versatility.
3. Micrometric Fine Boring Heads
For finishing, diameters 23–153 mm, lengths 9–14 mm, with high-precision radial adjustment screw graduated at 0.01 mm diameter. TORX screws clamp rhombic inserts. Special angular positioning rings available.
4. Double Cutter Boring Heads
Designed for roughing, offering increased rigidity via larger contact surfaces. Integrated coolant outlets and optional setting gauge for diameter pre-adjustment. Diameters 23–153 mm, lengths 9–15 mm. Special rings for angular positioning included.
5. Insert Holders for Double Cutter Heads
Available in 70° and 90° variants. The 70° holders maximize use of all four cutting edges of rhombic inserts, improving tool life and cutting efficiency, with rigid clamping and unobstructed chip flow.
6. Micrometric Fine Boring Heads (Small Diameter)
Diameters 3–53 mm, lengths 9–17 mm, designed for finishing with special angular positioning rings. Detailed tool and sleeve dimensions provided.
7. Weldon and Whistle-Notch Holders

8. Tapping Chucks and Quick-Change Tapping Chucks
Support taps M3 to M28 with axial compensation for compression and extension, plus a release mechanism preventing rotation unless spindle reverses, aiding precise tapping depth control, especially in blind holes. Quick-change versions compatible with BILZ adapters cover taps M3 to M30.
9. Toolholder Blanks
Diameters 14.5–90 mm, lengths up to 90 mm. Critical zones treated to withstand 700 N/mm²; rest hardened to Rc 57–60. Include centering point per DIN 332 Form-R.
10. Rings for Angular Positioning of Boring Heads
Special rings for diameters 14.5–90 mm allow precise angular corrections at 90° and 180° increments, improving tool alignment and machining accuracy.
