🚀 DYNAMIC PROPERTIES AND PERFORMANCE:

Resistance to Abrasive Materials: the carbide (Vidia) blade, with a hardness of up to 92 HRC, is designed to withstand the abrasive binders and adhesives in MDF, chipboard, HDF, or OSB panels.
High-Productivity Z6 Configuration: the 6 Vidia cutting edges evenly distribute the mechanical load during cutting, ensuring precise groove geometry and constant feed without axis vibrations.
Silver-Based Brazing: the silver alloy (Ag) used for brazing absorbs micro-shocks from hard layered materials, preventing cracking or detachment of the inserts.
Sustainability and Reusability: the robust special steel body allows for professional re-brazing with new inserts at a specialized center after the carbide is completely worn.
Flexible Configuration: choose the exact desired groove or rebate thickness (4–60 mm) and bore diameter directly from the available variants on the product page.

⚠️ CRITICAL OPERATING RULES (T.C.T. VIDIA):

Optimal Application: specifically designed for MDF, chipboard, HDF, laminated wood, hardwoods, and composite materials.
Softwood Caution: ❌ on very soft wood (fir, spruce), the tool requires a fast and constant feed!
Avoid Overheating: dwelling in place with the cutter rotating directly on resinous woods can cause localized burning due to specific friction and the density of the metal carbide.

📊 COMPATIBILITY GRADE BY MATERIAL TYPE (T.C.T. VIDIA)

MDF / Chipboard / HDF / Laminated 100%

Optimal: resistant to abrasive wear from the synthetic binder in these panels.

Hardwood (Beech, Oak, Ash) 100%

Excellent: the cutting edge lasts for thousands of linear meters without frequent resharpening.

Composite & Exotic Materials 100%

Maximum: the recommended choice for demanding applications.

Softwood (Fir, Spruce, Pine) Fast Feed Required

Functional, but with risk of burning due to friction if the feed is not constant and fast.

💡 For work predominantly on softwoods (fir, spruce, pine), the equivalent variant with HSS M2 inserts is also available.

🦺 SAFETY MEASURES IN USE:

Mandatory protective equipment: safety glasses (against projected chips), mask or respiratory filter (fine wood dust and MDF/chipboard dust), and ear protection for prolonged work.
Attention to hands and fingers: maintain a safe distance from the cutting area and use feed/pushing devices where possible; do not intervene manually near the moving cutter.
Maintain a constant feed, especially on soft wood, to avoid the cutter dwelling in rotation and the risk of fiber burning.
Check the cutter's fixation on the arbor before starting the machine.
Observe the recommended speed (6,000 – 9,000 RPM) – do not exceed the indicated value to avoid vibrations or damage to the inserts.
