Y.T. Indexable T-Slot Cutter (3T) - Metric - 80 mm Saw Diameter for LNGT Inserts - Insert Width 2.5 to 3mm (3T2580-2.5)

Engineer precise T-slots and scalable pockets with this 80 mm indexable T-slot cutter, designed for machine shops seeking repeatable centering, rapid insert rotation, and high-efficiency material removal in steel and alloy workpieces.

• Cutting Diameter: 80 mm rotary body optimized for dedicated T-slot profiling and contour pocketing operations
• Insert Compatibility: Accepts LNGT indexable inserts with a width of 2.5 to 3.0 mm, enabling adjustable cutting widths and straightforward edge rotation
• Tapered-Polygon Interface: Precision-ground conical taper secures the shank for exact radial positioning and repeatable concentricity under load
• CAPTO Platform Integration: Mounts to standard CAPTO adapters, providing access to nine cutter configurations and cross-referencing with over 1,400 compatible UFO-style inserts
• Flute & Chip Design: Engineered helix angles and evacuation channels sustain uninterrupted coolant delivery and prevent recutting during deep-step passes

This indexable architecture replaces costly solid HSS and welded alternatives, delivering up to three times the cutting performance in matched operating conditions. The tapered-polygon locking mechanism reduces tool deflection and vibration chatter, which maintains dimensional tolerance and improves edge consistency across each pass. When an insert wears, operators simply rotate or replace the segment without returning a complete tool to the grinder, cutting downtime and consumable spend. Full CAPTO compatibility centralizes tool storage, simplifies presetting workflows, and allows quick swaps between soft stock profiling and heavier keyway cutting. The result is steady cycle times, predictable surface finishes, and a modular cutting system that scales with expanding insert inventories.
