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.
A combination of the latest coating and micrograin substratetechnology to give superior reliability and wear resistancewhen cutting stainless steels at high speed.
An all new coated carbide turning grade ideal for higher speed machining of stainless steel. Able to turn stainless steel at speeds up to 800 SFPM. This grade also features a special edge prep that inhibits edge build-up in gummy materials.
