Description

Product Overview

The Utiltools Switzerland M1.6 single-flute thread mill is a precision threading tool for producing M1.6 threads, a common standard in dental implants, in hard materials such as titanium.

Its single-flute geometry reduces cutting force and the risk of tool breakage at this small diameter. Utiltools has more than 50 years of experience in precision medical tooling.

Technical Specifications

• Thread size: M1.6 × 0.35 mm (ISO 68-1)
• Flute count: Single flute
• Material: Solid carbide, Swiss grade
• Coating: Utiltools proprietary TiAlN
• Minimum threading bore: M1.6, to a depth of 2×D
• Recommended titanium cutting data: Vc = 20–40 m/min; fz = 0.003–0.006 mm
• Standards: ISO 1502, DIN 13

Applications & Industries

• M1.6 threads in titanium dental implants (Ti-6Al-4V)
• Dental abutments and implant connection screws
• Stainless-steel surgical-instrument components
• Precision watchmaking with fine M1.6 threads
• Medical-electronics equipment with miniature parts

Features & Benefits

• Single-flute geometry for lower cutting force at small diameters
• High resistance to breakage during titanium threading
• Thread surface finish of Ra ≤ 0.8 μm
• Dimensional consistency over the tool service life
• Specified for widely used dental-implant protocols
