WELDON 3AF Finisher:
The 3AF is intended for finishing operations in aluminum and non-ferrous materials. These tools have a high shear 40 degree helix and come standard with a cylindrical margin to provide chatter resistant machining and superior finishes in all non-ferrous materials. Although intended for finishing, the 3AF has also proven itself in lighter roughing applications.
In addition to square end tools, we provide a broad radius program for our 3AF series.
The 3AF is available from stock as a bright tool or with Zirconium Nitride (ZrN) and Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN) coatings for improved performance and extended tool life. Special quotes and non-stocked coatings are available upon request.
WELDON 5SF Finisher:
We round out our Weldon Premium Carbide offering with the 5SF. This tool is intended for finishing operations, though it can also handle medium to light peripheral roughing, in steel and ferrous alloys. A full eccentric primary grind, sharp corners, a 40 degree helix to ensure proper chip evacuation and an odd number of flutes to reduce unwanted harmonics come together in our 5SF to deliver superior finishes in ferrous materials. The 5SF should be your first choice in premium carbide for finishing and medium to light peripheral roughing for steel and ferrous applications.
Our 5SF square end tools are complemented by a broad radius program.
Aluminum Titanium Nitride (AlTiN) and Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN) tools are available from stock in stub, standard, long and extra long lengths. Special quotes and non-stocked coatings are available upon request.
Stellram has a range of tools for use on Swiss Auto type industrial lathes with small cross section shanks from 0.375” (10mm) square to 0.750” (20mm) square. Grades and geometries are available to professional handle the specific feeds and speeds associated with these machines.
Some other features of this program are:
- Nose radii starting at 0 for excellent surface finishes and sharp internal corners
- New –62 geometry and new PVD technology
- Equal shank and tool tip dimensions on all toolholders for programming ease
- Boring rods with standard coolant holes to aid in chip evacuation
- Part-off professional inserts from 1.6mm/0.063” to 3.0mm/.118” widths
- Integral shank cutoff and grooving holders for maximum rigidity
- Back turning holders and inserts for turning behind a shoulder eliminates additional operations
- Tungsten Carbide reinforced boring professional bars to eliminate chattering

TOOL AND MATERIAL CLAMPING SYSTEMS
Description of tool holders and tool carriers
Tool holders are mainly clamps and expandable dollies and also derivatives of clamps.
Tool-carrier ranges are manufactured to meet ISO and HSK standards as well as Schaublin’s standards which have often become the standards for the world. We also produce cylindrical tool-carriers, Morse tapers and specific adaptations of particular machines or applications.
Schaublin also develops, on request, special applications that require clamping abilities tailored to the customer’s requirements.
Operation and uses
Clamps are used to grip the material, parts in rotation and counter-rotation or tool shanks. These clamps are of pull or thrust type where the force on the taper closes the clamp onto the part to be gripped.
Clamps are generally steel, sometimes brass or with inserts of other materials.
