Cemented carbides are a class of hard materials used extensively for cutting tools, as well as in other industrial applications. It consists of fine particles of carbide cemented into a composite by a binder metal. Cemented carbides commonly use tungsten carbide (WC), titanium carbide (TiC), or tantalum carbide (TaC) as the aggregate. Mentions of "carbide" or "tungsten carbide" in industrial contexts usually refer to these cemented composites. The cobalt content could vary from 5% to 23% base on application. 8% to 12% are the most common for cutting tools. Ruthenium is used to replace cobalt as a perfered binder for the best cutting performance.
HC-K20/K30 Nanomold Black (TiAIN based) Highly wear resistantand tough, coated milling grade with high cutting edge stability and thus particularly suitable for roughing and semi-finishing alloyed and unalloyed tool steels, high-strength materials and cast iron. Suitable for dry, wet and MQL machining.
