Carbide, PCBN & PVD turning inserts are engineered to deliver precision, consistency, and long tool life across a wide range of turning applications.
Carbide inserts offer excellent hardness, strength, and wear resistance, making them ideal for general-purpose turning of steels, stainless steels, cast iron, and non-ferrous materials. Their wide range of geometries and grades allows for accurate cutting, good surface finish, and reliable performance in both roughing and finishing operations.
PCBN (Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride) inserts are designed for high-speed machining of hardened materials, typically above 45 HRC. They provide exceptional thermal stability, edge strength, and wear resistance, making them ideal for hard turning applications where grinding would traditionally be used.
PVD-coated turning inserts combine a tough substrate with advanced surface coatings to reduce friction, improve heat resistance, and extend tool life. These coatings enhance performance in demanding cutting conditions, offering improved chip control, longer wear resistance, and consistent results across a variety of materials.
Together, carbide, PCBN, and PVD turning inserts provide machinists with flexible, high-performance solutions for precision turning, helping to improve surface finish, accuracy, and overall machining efficiency.
