Titanium Tips are tested tough
Goodtool Titanium Coated Cutting Tips will increase your profit margin. Here's how.
- Titanium coated tips last longer than uncoated tips
- Titanium coated tips deliver a better finish in a single pass so you work faster and get more cuts per tip
The titanium coating is applied to a carbide substrate. This coating is specifically developed for cutting, turning and boring most materials at moderate to low speeds. Its unique mechanical and thermal shock resistant properties make it ideal for cutting today's drums and rotors while providing longer life for more cuts per tip.
Make your shop more profitable
For even better performance, try our Round Titanium Cutting Tips. A single pass with the round tip yields a much better finish than a single pass with a triangular tip. With standard triangular tips, it takes an average of 15 minutes to resurface two rotors. With our Titanium coated round tips you can aggressively cut four rotors in the same amount of time. You get more done in less time, increasing your billable time.
Goodtool's most popular cutting tips were recently run through a battery of tests and the results speak for themselves ...
