Mold makers place high demands on cutting tools. These high standards are only achieved with tools that guarantee process reliability, precision, and repeatability. Guhring meets these rigorous requirements with G-Mold, a wide range of end mills designed specifically for mold making.

Guhring’s reconditioning services offer you a precise, strategic solution to soaring tool prices. They provide true factory-quality reconditioning by utilizing the same high-precision CNC grinding machines, advanced PVD coating systems, and strict process controls used in the production of new Guhring tools.

Guhring's Pionex form taps are the new generation threading tools. Their exceptional performance is a result of their superior lubricating groove, polygon form, and surface finish.

The Fluke 87V Industrial Multimeter is built for professionals who need accuracy, durability, and trust in the toughest environments.

Explore the technologies and manufacturing milestones that have driven productivity, competitiveness and innovation throughout 250 years of American history.

Generating suitable chip forms and sizes and evacuating them is vital for the success of any drilling operation. This video provides tips on chip control when using solid carbide drills or exchangeable-tip drills.

In the modern metalworking industry, tungsten carbide has become the most commonly used cutting material. With significantly greater hardness, abrasion resistance, and thermal strength compared to traditional high-speed steel (HSS), tungsten carbide allows for substantially higher cutting speeds, resulting in increased metal removal rates (MRR) and enhanced productivity.

MSC’s Steve Turner shares his thoughts on timeless shop fundamentals, the evolution of machining technology and why training remains the industry’s biggest gap.

Using thermal imaging preventive maintenance regularly to check the temperature of critical equipment allows you to track operating conditions over time and quickly identify unusual readings for further thermography inspections.

There is a specific point of frustration that every machinist eventually hits on the lathe. The job is dialed in, the speeds and feeds are theoretically perfect, and the coolant is hitting the sweet spot; yet the cut still isn’t right. The problem may be in the insert geometry.

In this episode of Quick Tips from MSC Industrial Supply, we take a closer look at Milwaukee's Ceramic+ Bonded Abrasives, engineered to deliver faster material removal, longer wheel life, and improved control when cutting and grinding tough materials. Featuring self-sharpening ceramic grains, Milwaukee's Ceramic+ Bonded Abrasives are designed to remove material up to two times faster than standard wheels.

A quick‑mount hub is a threaded hub permanently attached to a portable grinding wheel. It allows the wheel to be mounted directly onto a threaded angle‑grinder arbor without additional flanges or tools, reducing setup time.
