Description
The Vortex VNGA160404-CBN20 turning insert is a non-regrindable, single-edge CBN insert designed specifically for machining hardened steels. It’s ideal for shops, engineers, and technicians who need reliable performance with fewer grinding steps. For the best results, pair this insert with double clamp turning tools or boring bars to minimize vibration and maximize tool life.
- Non-regrindable, single-edge design: Maintains consistent edge geometry and reduces downtime by eliminating the need for regrinding in hardened-steel turning
- CBN performance for hardened steels: Delivers stable cutting action and reliable throughput on hard alloys without the need for grinding inserts
- Optimized for vibration control: Recommended use with double clamp turning tools or boring bars to minimize vibration and extend tool life, improving surface quality and productivity
This insert helps you streamline hardened-steel turning with fewer tool changes and predictable results. The CBN edge resist wear in tough materials, while the non-regrindable design minimizes maintenance. When used with the right double-clamp tooling, you’ll experience smoother cuts, better tolerances, and faster cycles, boosting overall shop efficiency and throughput.
