Sever-Cuts™ are engineered specifically for fast, efficient cutting in aluminum and soft non-ferrous metals.
Standard rotary files tend to load up and clog when cutting aluminum, causing poor surface finish and reduced tool life. Sever-Cuts™ solve this problem with a super coarse flute design that provides aggressive chip clearance, preventing material buildup and ensuring clean, fast cuts.
Ideal For
- Aluminum alloys (all grades)
- Copper and brass
- Zinc die castings
- Magnesium
- Lead and soft metals
- Plastics and composites
Key Benefits
- No loading or clogging
- Fast material removal
- Clean surface finish
- Extended tool life
- Reduced heat buildup
- Lower cutting forces
How Sever-Cuts™ Work
The secret to Sever-Cuts™ performance lies in the flute geometry:
- Super Coarse Pitch: Very coarse, deep positive flutes with a large flute radius remove material without loading up. The tool name suffix gives the flute count (-4F, -6F or -8F)
- Positive Rake Angles: Sharp cutting edges slice through soft metals instead of pushing material
- Deep Flutes: Extra flute depth provides maximum chip clearance
- Polished Flutes: Smooth flute surfaces reduce friction and material adhesion
Application Tip
Sever-Cuts™ can be used in either hand or machine operations. Start at a slower speed and increase until you get the best results, with light pressure. Let the tool do the cutting - excessive force causes heat buildup and loading.
