  • Tool with right-hand and left-hand cutting features extending along the full length of the cutting zone
    Patent number: 10272504
    Abstract: Rotatable, solid cutting tool with both right-hand spirals and left-hand spirals, each of which includes an interrupted cutting edge having individual cutting edges. Individual cutting edges of the right hand spirals are axially staggered helically around a circumference of a cutting portion with respect to individual cutting edges of the left hand spirals so that, at each axial position along an axial length of the cutting portion, each radial cross-section includes both at least one individual cutting edge on a right hand spiral and at least one individual cutting edge on a left hand spiral. Individual cutting edges have a length along an outer circumference of the cutting tool that is the same for individual cutting edges of the right hand spiral and individual cutting edges of the left hand spirals. Cutting edges on differently handed spirals are both right handed cutting edges or both left handed cutting edges.
