Innovative geometry. Positive impact.

The new HEXAPLUS 49490 represents a significant upgrade in the HEXAPLUS line, offering not only the benefits of a smaller size but also introducing a new geometry called WOXT.
This innovative design delivers capabilities that are entirely different from the previous WNXT geometry, significantly enhancing performance and functionality.
The combination of compactness and advanced structure makes the HEXAPLUS 49490 a versatile and powerful choice for shoulder milling applications.

The positive WOXT insert design features an optimized chip breaker with a wiper edge that creates a gentler point of contact and significantly reduces the contact area, thereby lowering cutting forces. This allows the WOXT to deliver smooth cutting action and a fine surface finish.
Despite its positive angles, the WOXT’s advanced geometry is engineered to provide the strength and durability typically associated with negative inserts.

With its revolutionary WOXT geometry, the HEXAPLUS 49490 sets a new standard in stainless steel and superalloy machining, delivering precise cutting, superior surface quality, and exceptional tool durability.
