FAQ

What tool holders are compatible with the 71-187-2BSL insert?

The 71-187-2BSL insert is compatible with standard Aloris wedge grip holders that accept the 71‑series geometry. Refer to the holder’s specification sheet for exact dimensions.

Can these inserts be used on hardened steel?

Yes, the high‑grade alloy steel material and heat‑treated edge allow the inserts to machine hardened steel effectively, provided appropriate cutting parameters are selected.

How often should the inserts be replaced?

Because they are designed as throwaway inserts, replacement frequency depends on the material being machined and the cutting conditions. In typical production runs, users replace them after a few hours of continuous operation to maintain optimal performance.

Is there a recommended coolant for these inserts?

Using a high‑pressure coolant system with a water‑based coolant helps dissipate heat and prolongs tool life, especially when machining ferrous alloys.

What warranty does Aloris provide?

Aloris offers a limited warranty covering manufacturing defects for a period of one year from the date of purchase, ensuring confidence in product quality.
