Holemaking Inserts Boost Drilling Productivity
Designed for holemaking applications, Kennametal’s Beyond insert line includes three new grades,KCPK10, KCU25 and KCU40.
With a multi-layered PVD TiN-TiAlN coating and a tough substrate, the KCU40 grade withstands interruptions and provides high wear resistance, the company says. This results in increased tool life at equivalent material removal rates compared to standard inserts.
