Standard Engraving Cutters

Our most frequently used tool for engraving plastics and metals. Antares cutters are made from Micrograin carbide with our exclusive MicroEdge® finish to produce cleaner cuts and stay sharper longer. Standard cutting tools produce a cut with a 30° side angle for plastics and a 40° side angle for metals. They are available in a variety of tip widths.


See our Antares Fact Sheet on Rotary Engraving.
