Turning inserts and grades for hardened steel

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.

CB7125

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

  • PVD coating with good fracture resistance
  • Stable and predictable tool life
  • Efficient machining with good surface finish

High performance hard part turning inserts

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.
