New Versatile AS5202-X Port Tools

The AS5202-X series is a brand-new style of port tools by Scientific Cutting Tools that meets the requirements of AS5202, MS33649, and AND10050 port specifications. This tool offering is ideal for non-standard thread minor diameters and lengths. The tools have three flutes, are coolant through, and do not have a pilot diameter.

This series is also designed to replace SCT’s line of piloted port tools. Historically, solid pilot tools were used to line up the tool to the hole when using manual milling and drilling equipment. With the widespread use of modern CNC equipment, the solid pilot is no longer necessary, and sometimes detrimental. The AS5202-X will cut the required spot face and counterbore only; it does not cut the thread minor diameter. A coolant hole to each flute aids with increased chip evacuation, higher speeds and feeds, and longer tool life. The polished flute face optimizes performance for a smoother surface finish. The body of the port tool is made of heat- treated alloy steel and the brazed inserts are made of premium quality sub-micron carbide. Tools are in stock and available to order either uncoated or AlTiN+ coated. For ferrous and hard-to-machine materials, the coated version is highly recommended.
