Uncoated Grades are suited for die steels manufacturing.

Press Release Summary:




With fracture and wear resistance for high-speed finishing of die steels and bearings, BN1000 exhibits extended life in continuous to light-interrupted cutting. General-purpose BN2000, when machining bearings or die steels, provides stable tool life for continuous to medium-interrupted cutting. Derived from high-purity ceramic binding that optimizes heat resistance while strengthening tolerated cutting force, uncoated grades come in single- and multi-corner type inserts.

Sumitomo Electric Carbide, inc. Provides Cutting Edge Solution in Die Steels Manufacturing



Mount Prospect, IL – Sumitomo Electric Carbide, Inc. advances uncoated turning in bearing and die steel manufacturing with the new BN1000 and BN2000. The new uncoated grades deliver an effective solution in high-speed to general purpose turning.



The BN1000 supplies users with excellent tool life in continuous cutting to light-interrupted cutting. High speed finishing of die steels and bearings is made possible through improved fracture and wear resistance. The BN1000 sets the bar for high-speed uncoated turning. The BN2000 provides a general purpose grade for the machining of hardened steel. When machining bearings or die steels, the BN2000 provides stable tool life on continuous cutting to medium interrupted cutting.



The uncoated series derives from a newly developed high-purity ceramic binding. This advanced binding increases heat resistance while strengthening the tolerated cutting force. The BN1000 and BN2000 are available in single corner and multi-corner type inserts.
