Product overview

Gear Cutting & Skiving

Large standard programme
CERATIZIT offers one of the largest standard ranges of carbide rods. Choose from carbide grades with the most varied characteristics for every application area: from ultrafine carbide grades for the machining of super-hard materials, by way of micrograin carbide grades for universal application to cermet carbide grades for the finish machining of cast iron materials.

Furthermore we provide you with an extensive range of products with or without coolant holes, in a variety of tolerances and dimensions.
Your choice: customised blanks
Benefit from customised blanks and semi-finished tools for the production of rotating cutting tools, such as solid carbide tools and PCD tools, systems with replaceable heads or tool shanks. Thanks to long-standing experience of blank machining and reliance on most up-to-date production facilities, we can produce these specifically in accordance with your drawings.

Even complex geometries will be produced near net shape, and our intelligent lean management system ensures that they can be delivered in next to no time.
