The Original Korloy CCMT060204-HMP NC3030 is a specialized turning insert designed for steel machining under unstable conditions. Featuring the high-toughness NC3030 grade, this insert excels in interrupted cuts and low-to-medium speed operations where edge reliability is paramount.
Technical Specifications:
| Brand | Korloy (100% Genuine) |
| ISO Code | CCMT060204-HMP |
| Grade | NC3030 (High Toughness CVD) |
| Nose Radius | 0.4 mm (General Purpose) |
| Primary Application | Interrupted Steel Cutting |
Core Performance Benefits:
- Extreme Toughness: The NC3030 grade is specifically formulated to prevent chipping during heavy interrupted cuts or when machining parts with rough surfaces.
- Edge Reliability: Ideal for older machines or setups with lower rigidity, providing a stable cutting process.
- Versatile HMP Chipbreaker: Ensures excellent chip evacuation across a wide range of feed rates, reducing heat buildup.
- CVD Coated Durability: Provides a robust thermal barrier, extending tool life during medium-speed machining of carbon and alloy steels.
Recommended Cutting Parameters:
| Workpiece Material | Cutting Speed (Vc) | Feed Rate (f) | Depth of Cut (ap) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carbon Steel (HB180-280) | 120 - 280 m/min | 0.10 - 0.25 mm/rev | 0.5 - 2.5 mm |
| Alloy Steel (HB280-350) | 100 - 220 m/min | 0.08 - 0.20 mm/rev | 0.5 - 2.0 mm |

- Boring Bars (Internal): S10K-SCLCR06 / S12M-SCLCR06
Packaging: 10 pieces per box.
Quick Guide: NC3020 vs. NC3030
Not sure which grade to choose? Here is a quick breakdown to help you pick the right tool for your steel turning job:
- Best for: Continuous cutting & high speeds.
- Setup: Stable machines and rigid workpiece.
- Performance: High thermal stability and longer tool life in stable conditions.
- Target: General steel finishing to semi-finishing.
- Best for: Interrupted cuts (keyways, holes, hex).
- Setup: Unstable machines, shaky setups, or rough skin.
- Performance: Exceptional toughness to prevent sudden edge breakage.
- Target: Heavy roughing or "problematic" steel jobs.
Pro Tip: If your insert is wearing down too fast, switch to NC3020. If your insert is chipping or breaking, switch to NC3030.
