Cermet is a cutting material combining ceramics and metals (usualט Nickel). The result is a harder substrate than carbide, therefore more wear-resistant, and enables machining at higher cutting speeds. The downside is very low toughness, and therefore, it is used only for finishing applications in stable conditions. Some tougher versions are available today for semi roughing. Used very often in Duplex milling.
Utility Double-Ended Inserts for External and Internal Grooving and Turning
A very hard cermet grade for turning and grooving. Recommended for finishing operations on steels and alloy steels at high cutting speeds and low feeds. Features excellent surface finish, high wear resistance, plastic deformation durability and prevents built-up edge.
