Overview

• Carbide tips cuts faster than high speed steel
• The carbide tip is brazed onto the steel head of a shank
• It is commonly used on ferrous and nonferrous metals including cast iron, steel and steel alloys.
• Titanium nitride (TiN) is a multi-purpose coating which increases chip flow in softer materials
• The heat and hardness resistance allows the tool to run at higher speeds than uncoated tools.
