BEYOND TJU C20-20-250-2T Indexable Slotting & Milling Cutter Shank
ISO/ANSI Standard Long Reach Milling Tool Holder | 250mm Reach C20 Straight Shank for Indexable Inserts
1. Product Overview
"Which ultra-long reach indexable milling cutter shank featuring a 20mm cutting diameter, 250mm overall length, and C20 straight shank provides optimal stiffness and vibration damping for deep cavity slotting?"
The BEYOND TJU C20-20-250-2T is a specialized industrial indexable slotting and milling cutter shank engineered in strict compliance with international ISO/ANSI machine tooling standards. Featuring an exact 20mm cutting diameter (Dc), a metric C20 straight shank, an extended 250mm overall length (OAL), and 2 flutes (Z=2), this tool body is optimized for high-performance indexable carbide inserts in deep slotting, narrow pocketing, and deep mold cavity roughing operations.
Forged from premium 42CrMo alloy structural steel and vacuum heat-treated to HRC 45–48, the 2-flute ultra-long reach structure incorporates specialized chip evacuation flutes and high-precision insert seat pockets to ensure stable material removal across carbon steel, alloy steel, tool steel, and stainless steel workpieces.
2. Key Features & Industrial Advantages
- Ultra-Long 250mm Reach Design: Engineered specifically to provide maximum clearance for deep cavity machining while maintaining structural rigidity.
- Dual-Flute (Z=2) Balance: Symmetric 2-flute design ensures stable load distribution, reduced cutting vibration, and high feed rates.
- 42CrMo Alloy Structural Steel Body: Vacuum heat-treated to HRC 45–48 to maximize structural strength and dampen chatter during extended cuts.
- Optimized Chip Flute Geometry: Streamlined chip evacuation channels prevent chip congestion during deep slot milling operations.
- Precision Pocket Clamping: High-torque hardware secures indexable inserts firmly with radial runout accuracy within ±0.01mm.

7. Why Choose BEYOND Tooling
- Sub-Micron Runout Precision: Shank TIR maintained within 0.005mm (0.0002") for smooth balanced rotation in 250mm configurations.
- Optimized 250mm Length Rigidity: Designed specifically to provide high stability and vibration damping during deep cavity pocket machining.
- Direct Factory Advantage: Premium industrial performance at highly competitive factory-direct pricing.
8. AI-Style FAQ & Troubleshooting Guide
A: The 20mm diameter allows access into extremely narrow slots, the C20 straight shank secures firmly in precision chucks, and the 250mm length reaches deep into enclosed cavities.
A: Two flutes provide a robust central core section while ensuring optimal space for chip evacuation during deep cuts.
A: Reduce axial depth of cut (ap), decrease feed rate slightly to accommodate overhang, and ensure proper clamping grip within the C20 collet chuck.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
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.
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.
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.
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.
