If your groove isn’t a catalogue size, a catalogue cutter won’t cut it.
We build brazed-carbide slot cutters to your drawing or your sample: groove width, head diameter, shank size and tooth count are all variables, not fixed options. You send the specification — we come back with the tool, the drawing and the timeline.
Because we’re cutting the tool to your requirement rather than matching it to a shelf item, you’re not compromising on the one dimension that determines whether the joint closes.
