Thread Milling For Deep Threads | Polymill | SAMTEC

SAMTEC’s Polymill circular milling tools are engineered to provide outstanding performance in deep thread milling applications. Featuring a polygonal insert seat and six cutting edges, these tools are designed to handle deep threads and high chipping volumes with ease and efficiency.


The new generation of Polymill circular cutters offers an array of benefits that improve both the economy and quality of your machining processes.

The polygonal connection between the insert and cutter body ensures better tool stability, resulting in:


    • Longer Tool Lifetimes: The robust design ensures durability and extended tool life.
    • Higher Chipping Volume: Enhanced cutting capabilities lead to increased productivity.
    • Higher Feeds: Achieve greater cutting efficiency with higher feed rates.
    • Shorter Machining Times: Reduce cycle times, increasing overall production efficiency.

Polymill tools are ideal for plunge cuts, guard ring slots, O-ring slots, and internal threads (including Metric Internal Threads to DIN, Whitworth Threads, and special recesses). These versatile tools are designed for precision milling in components with complex geometries.

Available Variants:

    • P16, P20, and P26: These are the three basic types of Polymill tools, available in various shank and insert dimensions to meet diverse applications.
    • Carbide Options: For added durability, Polymill tools are available in carbide variants with a tool-steel head, ensuring both strength and flexibility.

Polymill's cutting-edge design and varied tool lengths make it the perfect solution for complex machining tasks, ensuring high-quality, cost-effective results in a wide range of industrial applications.
