Review on ๐Ÿ”ช Improved Cutting Precision with Indexable Carbide Turning Holder DCMT21 51 by Brendan Thorpe

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great upgrade for older lathes

Combined with the AXA QC tool holder, this set is a real insider tip. This is a definite improvement over 1/4" HSS bits held in a lantern holder. The plates must be pressed down firmly before use, but the plates themselves are usable. The boring bar has flat surfaces for use in a traditional holder, eliminating the need for a dedicated boring bar holder.

Pros
  • Each tool holder comes with positive rake carbide insert and built in chip breaker, ideal for general purpose cutting.
Cons
  • Drill package
