KCK10A
Multilayered PVD AlTiN-based coated submicron grain carbide with superior surface finish. First choice for cast iron. This grade utilizes a newly developed coating combined with a state-of-the-art surface condition to offer extraordinary wear resistance in abrasive materials at elevated cutting conditions with improved performance consistency.

Grade Description
05
A PCD-tip brazed to carbide for machining aluminium with a very high silicon content, abrasive non-ferrous materials, and fibre-reinforced plastics. KD1410 can be used at very high cutting speeds, even where good surface finishes are required. This grade can be used both wet or dry but is suggested to use coolant where good surface finishes are required.
