Harvey Tool’s Spring 2017 catalog

Rowley, Massachusetts – Harvey Tool has releases its Spring 2017 catalog, featuring the new high performance composite drill – double angle, high performance composite drill – brad point, corner radius – long reach, standard flute end mill, and PCD diamond – square – 4-flute end mill. More than 1,400 new tools were added in this edition of Harvey Tool’s biannual catalog.

Harvey Tool is committed to designing unique geometries that optimize cutting performance for a variety of materials and applications. This commitment serves as the motivation to add more than 1,000 new tools to the market with each new catalog release every March and September.

Spring 2017 catalog tool highlights

• High performance composite drill – double angle – These double angle composite drills are engineered for optimal performance in layered composites and virgin plastics. Their double angle point geometry prevents push-out and delamination, a common challenge when drilling in layered composites.
• High performance composite drill – brad point – Harvey’s new brad point composite drill is designed for optimal drilling performance in glass or carbon fiber filled and reinforced composites. The center and OD spur point geometry creates accurate scoring action and prevents fraying, uncut fibers, and tear out.
• Corner radius – long reach, standard flute end mill – Designed for deep cavity milling and other long reach applications, these long reach miniature end mills are now stocked with 0.005" and 0.010" corner radius options, and cutter diameters down to 1/32".
• PCD diamond – square – 4-flute end mill – Harvey’s new PCD diamond end mills are designed with a long length of cut and four flutes to make them ideal for finishing operations in graphite, carbon fiber materials, gold, silver, magnesium, zinc, and green ceramics. PCD diamond’s abrasion resistance significantly increases tool life.

“This catalog is several months of hard work in the making,” states Jerry Gleisner, Harvey Tool senior vice president of sales, “and we’re so thrilled with how it turned out. We know that the new styles we’re introducing, along with the hundreds of new geometries we’re adding to our already established product lines, will take our customer’s machining operations to the next level.”
