Grades

• 
  K313

  Composition: A hard, low binder content, unalloyed WC/Co fine-grain grade.
  Application: Exceptional edge wear resistance combined with very high strength for machining titanium, cast irons, austenitic stainless steels, non-ferrous metals, non-metals, and most high-temp alloys. Superior thermal deformation and depth-of-cut notch resistance. The grain structure is well controlled for minimal pits and flaws, which contributes to long, reliable service.

  S High-Temp Alloys
• 
  K68

  Composition: A hard, low binder content, alloyed grade WC/Co fine-grain grade.
  Application: The K68 grade has excellent abrasion resistance for machining cast irons, austenitic stainless steels, non-ferrous metals, non-metals, and as an alternative to the K313 grade on most high-temperature alloys. Use as a general-purpose grade for non-ferrous materials.

• 
  KC5010

  Composition: An advanced PVD AlTiN coating over a very deformation-resistant unalloyed carbide substrate. The new and improved coating enables speeds to be increased by 50–100%.
  Application: The KC5010 grade is ideal for finishing to general machining of most workpiece materials at higher speeds. Excellent for machining most steels, stainless steels, cast irons, non-ferrous materials, and super alloys under stable conditions. It also performs well machining hardened and short chipping materials.

  KC5025

  Composition: An advanced PVD-AlTiN-coated grade with a tough, ultra-fine-grain unalloyed substrate.
  Application: For general-purpose machining of most steels, stainless steels, high-temp alloys, titanium, irons, and non-ferrous materials. Speeds may vary from low to medium and will handle interruptions and high feed rates.

  KC5410

  Composition: A PVD TiB2 coating over a very deformation-resistant unalloyed substrate.
  Application: Designed for roughing, semi-finishing, and finishing of free machining (hypoeutectic <12,2% Si) aluminium, aluminium alloys, and magnesium alloys. The TiB2 coating is harder than TiN and TiAlN coatings and has an extremely smooth surface, resulting in reduced surface friction, speedy chip flow, and outstanding wear resistance. Built-up edge is prevented because this coating has a very low affinity for aluminium. The substrate is unalloyed and fine grained and offers sharp edges, smooth surfaces, and excellent thermal deformation resistance and edge integrity. Inserts with a ground periphery are polished before coating and have a sharp edge. Moulded inserts have a light hone.

• 
  KCS10B

  Composition: PVD-AlTiN coating with a very smooth coating surface and extremely hard, wear-resistant ultra fine-grain carbide substrate.
  Application: The KCS10B™ grade is ideal for medium machining and finishing operations of Nickel-Based, Cobalt-Based, and Iron-Based High-Temperature Alloys. The extremely hard, wear-resistant carbide substrate allows for longer tool life while the ultra fine-grain carbide substrate and smoother coating reduces friction.

  KCU10

  Composition: An advanced multilayer PVD coating over a very deformation-resistant unalloyed carbide substrate. The new and improved coating improves edge stability with wide range speed and feed capabilities.
  Application: The KCU10 grade is ideal for finishing to general machining of most workpiece materials at a wide range of speed and feed capabilities. Excellent for machining most steels, stainless steels, cast irons, non-ferrous materials, and super alloys with improved edge toughness and higher cutting speed/feed capability.
