MTECS (Mill Thread Endmills Carbide Short) solid carbide thread mills for the production of
small internal threads. These thread mills feature a short 3-tooth cutting zone with 3 flutes
and a released neck between the cutting zone and the shank.
This unique tool design offers very precise profiles and a high performance. The very short
profile exerts a low force which minimizes tool bending. This facilitates parallel and high
thread precision for the entire length.

MTECS endmills are available with cutting diameters from 0.72 mm up to 12 mm
by metric system or from 0.045 inch to 0.449 inch by imperial and United States customary
systems. This line offers a solution for full profiles for most popular standards.
