Tungsten carbide  tools are smaller now than ever before, and seem to be getting smaller every year. To meet this challenge, SFS Carbide  cutting tools are fabricated exclusively from the advanced tungsten or solid carbide composites developed and supplied by domestic and foreign suppliers. Ultra-fine grain cemented ceramics are the result of an extensive development program aimed at optimizing the very best of cemented carbide technology to achieve an exceptional combination of hardness, toughness, and strength for demanding cutting jobs. These extraordinary properties have been achieved by producing tungsten carbide with a grain size of only 0.4 micron. We select grades of solid carbide to accommodate the application at hand from precision dental drills to industrial reamers and cylinder boring and finishing tools. Generally speaking, the need for reliable small hole drilling and the accompanying demand for extended tool life has necessitated the use of the finest grades of carbide currently available. The bulk of our tools are fabricated from 6 to 10% cobalt content,  which are recommended for solid carbide rotary tool applications where high cutting speeds are routinely encountered.

All of our drill bits, reamers, routers and cutting tools are produced on Rollamatic multi-axis CNC grinding machines and are fully inspected using the latest laser and/or optical metrology techniques. Drill diameters are held to +0.0000"/-0.0004", end mill and router diameters to +0.000"/-0.001", overall tool lengths to 0.005", and depth set ring locations to 0.004". Tighter tolerances and custom geometries are available upon request as no job is too large or small for our tool making specialists.
