Walter expands Thrill·tec TC645 Supreme range
15 April 2025
FOLLOWING THE successful launch of the Thrill·tec TC645 Supreme orbital drill/thread mills for sizes ranging from M4 to M12, Walter is now broadening its offering to include extra metric sizes from M14 to M20, along with their imperial equivalents.

The new arrivals boast the same technical properties as the established versions - most importantly, the ability to carry out drilling, chamfering, and thread milling with just one tool. But for the first time, users can also benefit from the exceptional efficiency of this 3-in-1 function for larger thread dimensions. For instance, the longer paths of the machining program, which are common for large components, now only have to be travelled once instead of three times. For the end user, this reduces non-productive time by two-thirds.
Like all Thrill·tec orbital drill/thread mills, the new versions are also ultra-rigid, suitable for universal use in all ISO materials P, M, K, N and S up to 48HRc and boast integrated internal coolant. This enables reliable chip removal, especially with a high feed per tooth. The new additions extend tool life and ensure that blind and through holes are machined with precision and process reliability. The combination of short machining times and long tool life reduces the cost per thread.
The result is a tool that benefits both mass producers and users with smaller batch-size production. Walter offers special dimensions for delivery with a reduced delivery time of three weeks via its Walter Xpress service. In addition to the exceptional versatility, users from a wide range of industries, such as mechanical engineering, aerospace, automotive, and even construction, can benefit from the rapid availability of the tools.
