CY135 13.5mm Broach Cutters, Tin Coated, For Rail Drilling Machines

Cembre CY135 13.5mm Broach Cutters, Tin Coated, are high-performance cutting tools designed for use with Cembre’s rail drilling machines, such as the LD-41P or LD-16B-RP. Specifically engineered for railway applications, these broach cutters deliver precise, clean holes in steel rails, particularly VIGNOLE (flat-bottom) rails like the 60E1 (UIC60), with enhanced durability and efficiency.

Key Features

• 13.5mm Diameter: Ideal for drilling precise 13.5mm holes in rail webs, suitable for electrical contact installations, signal track circuits, or other rail fastening systems.
• Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coating: Provides high hardness and low friction, improving cut surface finish, corrosion resistance, and extending tool life for prolonged use in demanding conditions.
• Quick Push/Turn Shank: Ensures fast and secure attachment to Cembre rail drilling machines, enhancing operational efficiency.
• Optimized Cutting Geometry: Designed for clean, burr-free holes, reducing drilling time and improving accuracy compared to previous A and A-L type cutters.
• High Performance: Capable of drilling steel rail quality grades 700-900-1100 (UIC 860.0), with the ability to produce more holes per cutter and better surface finish.
• Compatibility: Specifically designed for Cembre rail drilling machines, ensuring seamless integration and reliable performance.
