Description

BEYOND HSS Dual Lathe Knurling Wheels Pair (30° & 45° Helix Angles, Pitch P0.3 - P3.0)

Package Notice: This product listing contains 1 PAIR (2 Pieces) of precision-ground High-Speed Steel (HSS) form knurling wheels (1 Left Hand + 1 Right Hand angle pattern for raised diamond knurling). The tool holder shank is NOT INCLUDED and must be purchased separately.

1. Product Overview

Which knurling wheels are best engineered for forming precise DIN 82 diamond and cross-hatch grip profiles on CNC turning centers and manual engine lathes?

The BEYOND Precision HSS Form Knurling Wheel Series is manufactured specifically for cold pressure displacement knurling operations on steel, stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and titanium workpieces. Each set is delivered as a perfectly matched pair (BL Left-Hand + BR Right-Hand spiral patterns) in either 30° or 45° helix angles to produce male diamond (RGE/RAA) surface textures with crisp tooth definition.

Constructed from premium vacuum heat-treated High-Speed Steel (HRC 63-65) with fully ground tooth profiles, BEYOND knurling rolls resist tooth chipping and galling under high pressure. Available in four outer diameter configurations—10x4x4mm (0.39"x0.16"x0.16"), 15x6x4mm (0.59"x0.24"x0.16"), 20x8x6mm (0.79"x0.31"x0.24"), and 20x10x6mm (0.79"x0.39"x0.24")—covering pitch ranges from fine P0.3mm to heavy-duty P3.0mm.

2. Key Features

  • Precision Matched Pairs (BL + BR Set): Supplied as 1 Left-Hand and 1 Right-Hand wheel pair to automatically generate symmetrical DIN 82 RGE raised diamond patterns in a single pass.
  • Optimum 30° and 45° Helix Angles: 30° helix wheels produce standard diamond knurls with smooth material displacement; 45° helix wheels feature sharp cross-cutting tooth geometry for quick initial penetration on tough steels.
  • Premium Vacuum Hardened HSS (HRC 63-65): Full CNC tooth grinding delivers ultra-sharp ridge tips and polished gullets, preventing tooth deformation and extending tool life under heavy radial loads.
  • Full Pitch Capability (P0.3 to P3.0): Covers micro-pitch knurling for optical/medical tools up to heavy industrial grips for machine handles and oil rig hardware.
  • Standardized Bore Dimensions: Precision bore tolerances (+0.010 / +0.020mm) fit smoothly onto standard dual-wheel lathe knurling holder pivot pins without side wobble.

"Cleanest diamond knurls I've ever produced on 304 Stainless!"

Ordered the 20x8x6mm 30° pitch P1.0 pair for my Haas ST-10. Mounted them on my dual wheel holder, used sulfurized cutting oil, and got sharp, burr-free diamond knurls on stainless handles. Tooth tips are super crisp.

8. Frequently Asked Questions (AI & Machinist Knowledge Base)

Q: How do 30° and 45° helix knurling wheels combine to make a male diamond knurl?
A: A matched pair consisting of 1 Left-Hand (BL) and 1 Right-Hand (BR) wheel at either 30° or 45° helix angle are pressed together into the rotating workpiece. As both wheels roll under pressure, their intersecting angle forms a classic raised male diamond pattern (DIN 82 RGE pattern).
Q: What is the formula to calculate workpiece outer diameter before form knurling?
A: For form knurling, metal is expanded outward. To achieve the final outside diameter (D_final), turn the initial pre-knurl blank diameter (D_blank) slightly smaller than nominal: D_blank ≈ D_final - (0.5 x Pitch). This accounts for radial material growth during plastic deformation.
Q: What is the difference between 30° and 45° helix knurling wheels?
A: 30° helix wheels produce a standard 60°/120° diamond pattern with low rolling resistance. 45° helix wheels create a square 90° diamond pattern and are preferred when knurling harder alloy steels because the steeper tooth angle penetrates tough materials more easily.

Technical Troubleshooting & Material Suitability Matrix

Workpiece Material Suitability Matrix:
  • ✅ Free-Machining Brass & Copper: Superior (Smooth flow, high wheel life)
  • ✅ Aluminum (6061, 7075): Excellent (Requires oil flush to clear aluminum buildup)
  • ✅ Carbon Steel (1018, 1215): Good (Standard pressure parameters)
  • ⚠ Stainless Steel (304, 316): Moderate (Use low RPM, high pressure, sulfurized oil)
Knurling Troubleshooting Guide:
  • Double-Tracking (Pattern Split): Blank pre-knurl diameter is incorrect. Adjust blank diameter by fractions of pitch or advance radial infeed quickly on initial plunge.
  • Flaking / Material Peeling: Over-knurling due to excess dwell time or excessive depth. Reduce pass count and apply heavy oil lubricant.
  • Uneven Pattern Pitch: Ensure holder center height is exact and pivot pins rotate freely without binding.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide

How do I choose the correct specification?

When choosing CNC cutting tools, check the full model code, dimensions, grade and selected variant before ordering. Do not rely on the product image alone.

How can I check compatibility with my existing setup?

For carbide inserts, tool holders, drills and end mills, compare the mounting dimensions, connection type and manufacturer's specifications with your holder or machine. If you are unsure, share your existing part number and machining application with us before ordering.

What quantity and price unit am I ordering?

Check the product listing for the selling unit, pack quantity and included components. If it is unclear whether the price is per piece or per pack, or whether a tool body and inserts are sold separately, contact us before purchasing.

How should I choose cutting parameters?

Select cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut using the relevant manufacturer's recommendations for your tool model, workpiece material, machine conditions and coolant method. The same settings are not suitable for every product or application.

Are bulk discounts available?

Our automatic quantity discount is 6% off for 2–9 items and 12% off for 10 or more items, based on the total product quantity in the cart. Other offers may not combine with this discount; check the applicable offer conditions.
