An extremely tough material and CVD coating combine to achieve excellent fracture and wear resistance

Achieve long tool life even at a low cutting speed range (Vc = 300m/min) due to the CVD coating

Features:

The combination of an extremely tough grade with a CVD coating achieves excellent fracture resistance and wear resistance

Lighter edge preparations reduce tool pressure

Excellent for finishing operations
