octagonal tips alternative sources?

[Ian WelfordParticipant @ianwelford58739]

Still struggling to get octagonal tips although James at DHL tools in Yeovill can get some direct from Maydown he believes. The price is eye watering, over £75  fo 10.

 

The ISO code is OEMT 05 T3 TR ideally I’d like coated ones anyone got any source apart from Maydown themselves?

 

Meyrick a really big thank you for the source

Hi There

I have ten new tips

Seco inserts Milling OFMT 07 04 05 TN-ME13.10

Don’t know how close the size is.

Bought in error.

Uncoated £30 the 10.

Well at that money they’ll be good . Mind you, a lot of milling tips are not cheap, but at less than £1 per edge that’s not huge. You pay more per edge on the standard CCMT turning tips.

 

For less you can get a Glanze holder AND the cheaper triangular milling tips.

 

Its just having to buy them all at once that hurts.

You may have already tried but I have bought tips from Ebay, mind you they were TCMT, 11mm triangular, but the prices were very low for Sandvik and Kennametal.

 

Cheers

ps;  Just had a quick browse and didn’t find any OEMT style but there was at least one OFMT 05 T3 style.

Greenwood Tools can supply octagonal inserts, give them a ring and speak to Peter.
