BENEFITS & APPLICATIONS
Provides increased surface hardness. Is recommended general purpose surface
treatment for increasing tool life in a wide variety of applications.
Acts as a solid lubricant and also retains liquid lubricant at cutting edges. Prevents
chip welding, reduces friction, and acts as thermal insulator between the tap and
the workplace.
This combination of both surface treatments affords the characteristics
of both treatments.
Provides increased surface hardness, adhesive (lower C.O.F.) resistance and tool
life.
Developed for machining difficult steel alloys. Adds life to tools in high speed
machining.
Adds lubricating and heat dissipation qualities at the cutting edge. Excellent for non
ferrous materials and soft steel.
An effective treatment when tapping non-ferrous metals and some soft steels
A multi layer coating, excellent for machining cast iron, stainless steel and nickel
based alloys.
* Note: Other coatings available upon request.
