The invention relates to a screw-in tool (1) and to a tool holder (2) for such a screw-in tool. The screw-in tool (1) contains a tool head (3) and a tool shank (4) having an outer thread (5) and a supporting region arranged between the tool head (3) and the outer thread (5). According to the invention, the supporting region is formed by two conical bearing faces (6, 8) having different cone angles.

A reamer has a basic tool body made of hard metal (12) and a plate-like cutting insert (18) inserted into a recess (28) at the front. The cutting insert (18) is at least partially made of polycrystalline diamond, its cutting edges (20) situated axially offset relative to the cutting edges (30) on the basic tool body (12), thus engaging with the workpiece later.

Disclosed is an anchor having a sleeve and a concentric shaft having head at one end with a rectangular plate through with the shaft interposed between the head and the adjacent end of the sleeve. A deformable plate is positioned on the shaft between the head and the sleeve so that movement of the sleeve along the shaft towards the head deforms the plate from a configuration where the plate is substantially confined to an area within the perimeter of the head into a substantially planar configuration where the perimeter of the plate extends at least partially beyond the perimeter of the head. Also disclosed is a method of fixing the anchor in a bore hole with the ends of the plate in an undercut in the bore hole and filling the bore hole with resin while venting air via a passage extending from adjacent to a closed end of the bore hole through a suitable cover.

A tool head for use with a modular shank tool includes at least two preforms. Each preform of the at least two performs is made separately from the other preform of the at least two preforms from granular materials and then put together and jointly compressed and integrally bonded.

A single-lip drill including at least one cutting edge on a drill head has a face which is concave along at least 75 percent of the width thereof and substantially along the entire length thereof, all the way to, and inclusive of, the cutting edge.

A drilling head for a tubular shank having an inside diameter and threads may comprise an axial body comprising a duct exiting through a first end; threads adjacent the first end corresponding to the threads on the shank and aligning the duct with the shank inside diameter; a bore from an outer surface of the body to the duct; and two axially extending approximately parallel and offset surfaces adjacent a second end; and an insert affixed between the offset surfaces, the insert comprising: a first face at least partially contacting one offset surface and a second face at least partially contacting the other offset surface; one or more cutting edges adjacent the first face, the second face, or both; and a cutting lip adjacent one or more cutting edges.

Disclosed is a cutting tool, including: a cutting edge including a coating from a rake face to a flank face, and has a relief angle of not less than 15 degrees, a material of the coating having a higher wear resistance than a base material of the cutting edge, and during cutting of a work, an edge of the coating on the rake face at a top of the cutting edge is worn by friction with the work; with a progress of a wear inward in a radial direction, an edge of the coating on the flank face at the top of the cutting edge is removed by friction with the work to expose the base material thereunder; and the exposed base material is worn by friction with the work to retract the flank face inward in the radial direction.

One aspect of the disclosure relates to a cutting tool for forming a final opening in a stack that includes at least two layers and a pilot opening having a pilot-opening dimension and extending through at least one of the at least two layers. The cutting tool includes a shank. The cutting tool also includes a first portion including at least one of a first coating or the first coating and a second coating, wherein the first coating at least partially covers the first portion. The cutting tool also includes a second portion between the shank and the first portion, wherein the second portion includes the second coating, and wherein the second coating at least partially covers the second portion.

A cutting element for use in a cutting operation, comprising a cutting edge (CE) capable of cutting out material from a workpiece during the operation, to form therein a workpiece corner of angle alpha. There exists at least one view of the cutting edge in which a portion of the cutting edge is delimitable by a first (L1) and a second (L2) line oriented tangentially to the portion of the cutting edge portion at respective tangency points A and B. The lines form therebetween a cutting angle corresponding to the workpiece corner angle alpha and have a vertex 0. For a bisector of the cutting angle intersecting the portion of the cutting edge at the point C, the projection C of the point C of the portion of the cutting edge on a line OL passing through the vertex 0 perpendicularly to the plane of the one view is located between projections A1 and B of the respective points A and B of the portion of the cutting edge on the line OL.

A cutting insert includes a top face, a bottom face and a plurality of side walls extending between the top face and the bottom face. A peripheral cutting edge is defined at the juncture of each side wall and the top face. Each cutting edge includes a linear cutting edge portion and a concave cutting edge portion that curves inwardly in a plane that is perpendicular to a plane containing a central axis of the cutting insert. A radiused corner portion connects two adjacent cutting edges. Each linear cutting edge portion extends from one radiused corner portion to the concave cutting edge portion and the concave cutting edge portion extends from the linear cutting edge portion to another radiused corner portion.
