Turning hardened steel calls for super-hard insert grades. Whatever your component or requirements for surface finish, find productive insert grades here that can withstand high temperatures and cutting forces and still retain their cutting edges.
This CBN grade is your first choice for case and induction hardened steels. With its medium content of boron nitride, it is suitable for light to medium interrupted cuts.Benefits and features
The new generation CBN grades are specifically designed to handle typical hard part turning machining challenges, such as surface and dimensional tolerance demands with competitive tool life, most efficiently.
Hard part turning has been proven to reduce machining time and costs by 70% or more.
Increase productivity with a single cut strategy for hard-to-soft rough machining of automotive components such as gears, crown wheels, shafts and case-hardened components.
Achieve high productivity and outstanding quality with our Hard Part Turning (HPT) solutions for all of your component design or surface finish requirements.
The new generation CBN grades CB7125 and CB7135 are designed to break new ground in medium to heavy interrupted hard part turning. The grades are optimized to handle high surface and dimensional tolerance demands in the most efficient manner.CB7125 and CB7135

First-choice CBN grade for low feed and continuous cuts in stable conditions at highest speeds in case and induction hardened steel.
First-choice CBN grade for high feed and/or depth of cut in continuous to light interrupted cuts at high speeds in case and induction hardened steels.
First-choice CBN grade designed to deliver stable and predictable tool life while machining case and induction hardened steels with light to medium interrupted cuts (chamfered component edges).
First-choice CBN grade designed to deliver stable and predictable tool life while machining case and induction hardened steels with heavy interrupted cuts (unchamfered component edges).
Dealing with the intense competition in manufacturing today means finding solutions to lower cost per part – without ever compromising process security. Find out how to make your steel turning operations more efficient.
The new grades are based on the newest generation cubic boron nitride (CBN) material. This material enhances crater wear resistance and fracture resistance at high cutting speed in case-hardened and induction-hardened material.
New generation CBN grades optimized for medium- to heavy-interrupted cuts. These grades deliver longer and more stable tool life, good surface finish and consistent dimensional tolerances, even at higher cutting parameters.
