Benefits
- Contestor products have a specially designed positive rake tooth form and set sequence for long tool life and straighter cutting. Contestor GT features a ground tooth profile for sharper teeth and smoother gullet finish. Tooth design increases beam strength for higher feed pressures. The result is a product that provides exceptional tool life.
