Severance Tool (Saginaw, MI) announced a line of tube end finishing rotary tools which can deburr, form or chamfer as required by application needs.

The tools are designed to finish both the inside diameter and outside diameter of tubing ends in a single operation and many feature adjustable, two piece construction to accommodate work on same size tubing having varying wall thickness ranges.

Among the tools offered, is a full line of tube deburring tools available in high speed  steel or carbide construction.

  • Provide 30° inside chamfer and 45° outside deburring
  • Designed for light duty to break sharp edges of both inside and outside diameters simultaneously
  • Tooth geometry with shearing cutting action for fast cutting that prevents loading of chips
  • Can be reground numerous times for long service and operate in speed ranges of 50 to 200 RPM
  • Adjustable outside ring or member secured by screws to provide various outside edge break sizes and compensate for different wall thickness within given tube diameter range
  • Tube deburring cutters available in standard sizes for 1/8”  outside diameter (1/16” inside diameter) through 2-1/4” outside diameter (2” inside diameter)  tubing, and with variety of shank styles  

Tube end Chamfer mills provide the same shear cutting action and outside ring 

  • Adjustable as deburring cutters, plus with Chatterless angle geometry
  • Designed for heavy-duty cutting to machine precise, smooth 45° outside diameter and 30° inside diameter chamfers in applications requiring easy assembly with other components
  • Available in sizes for pipe and tubing ranges from 3/16” to 2-1/2” outside diameter

The tube end forming cutters machine both an inside diameter and outside diameter radius, establishing a smooth, rounded end that is ideal for applications where tubing may be exposed

  • Selection of high speed steel and carbide tools available in sizes for tubing ranging from 1/8”  To 2-1/2” outside diameters
  • Each outside diameter size is complemented by range of wall thickness or gauge sizes to accommodate most popular tubing applications

For all three types of tube end finishing tools, standard sizes are typically shipped with same-day services. Severance also provides application-specific design and manufacture service, including custom size, chamfer angles and forming characteristics.

Single cutting action (inside diameter or outside diameter) chamfering tools are also available, and Severance offers a wide range of tool styles and sizes for deburring holes through tube walls.  

Other Severance tools include:

  • 3N1 combination countersink/drills
  • Midget Mills rotary files and burrs inside and outside deburring and chamfering mills
  • Micro-Reamers
  • Electrode dressers
  • Double-end countersinks
  • Chatterless countersinks
  • Adjustable stop countersink units
  • Stop countersink cutters
  • Variety of hand operated finishing tools

Other features may include, depending upon application:

  • Chatterless tooth geometry that alternates tooth-cutting angles to eliminate resonant vibration from tool and work piece for smooth finishes
  • Grayhone finish that provides cutting edges ready to work with no break in period required
