About ENT
ENT European Norm Tools GmbH is a manufacturer of machine-driven shank tools for woodworking based in Essingen (Baden-Württemberg). The product range comprises more than 1,500 milling, drilling and countersinking tools, including spiral flute cutters, groove cutters, face cutters, profile and construction cutters, insert-knife cutters, wood spiral drills, dowel drills, slot-mortising drill-cutters as well as countersinks and accessories such as ball bearings, insert knives, templates and display cabinets. Cutters are turned and milled from raw steel; then carbide plates are brazed onto them with silver or copper solder using brazing robots, ground and coated; drills are manufactured fully ground from high-performance high-speed steel. The tools are made of carbide, unalloyed and alloyed tool steel, and high-speed steel. The offering is complemented by services such as packaging, multilingual labelling, sales presentation and the provision of product data for B2B customers. More than 200,000 tools are held in stock at the site with high availability, ready for delivery.

High-speed steel (high-performance high-speed steel)
Fully ground wood spiral drills with good tool life.
Unalloyed tool steel
Material for carrier bodies and cutter bodies.
Alloyed tool steel
Material for carrier bodies and cutter bodies.
Silver solder
Used for brazing the carbide plates onto the carrier body with brazing robots.
Copper solder
