Overview of grades 
​ ​ ​
Wear resistance
Stable conditions​
Toughness​
Unstable conditions​
 
Versatile grades for all materials

GC15 and GC30 are designed for a wide application area, from medium- roughing to finishing. They are light cutting, yet strong, over a broad range of fees rates, depths of cut and multitude of materials.​

Tool holding

T-Max P lever clamping system uses negative, single or double-sided inserts for both external and internal machining. It has a pivoted lever, which tilts by adjusting the clamping screw. The lever forces the insert backwards into the pocket, locating the insert firmly against two sides.

 
The following tool holders are available:
  • Coromant Capto
  • SL heads
  • Silent Tools
  • Rectangular shanks
  • Cylindrical shanks
  • Multi task holders
  • Adjustable heads
  • BTS (Block tool system) internal and external
