HANNIBAL RESPONDS TO NEW MARKET DEMANDS

  • Metric diameter tool use increases - HANNIBAL expands listings of stocked standard metric drills, reamers, counterbores, and core drills
  • High speed steel reamer use decreases as end users convert to more cost effective HANNIBAL carbide tipped reamers - see "Cost Effective Reamer Selection" Guide
  • End users discover that HANNIBAL'S material specific tools increase performance dramatically with higher feeds & speeds, much longer tool life, and better finishes
  • Coolant fed tool use dramatically increases - HANNIBAL again expands stocked standard coolant fed drills, coolant fed reamers, and coolant fed end mills
  • "Cutting Feeds & Speeds" Chart reflects the further development of the acclaimed HANNIBAL Chip Classification System for more effective selection of cutting tools - also see comprehensive "Drill Point Selection" Guide and "Reamer Selection Based On Hole Condition" Guide
  • Solid carbide reamers and solid carbide head reamers with steel shanks have been added in the smaller size ranges and solid carbide reamers are also stocked in .0005 increments
