Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right brand for my application?
Three factors to consider: (1) the material you're cutting (steel, stainless, cast iron, aluminum), (2) the operation type (turning, milling, drilling, threading, grooving), and (3) your production volume and budget. For most general steel turning, any of the top 8 brands (KORLOY, Kyocera, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, Tungaloy, TaeguTec, ZCC·CT, Iscar) will deliver comparable performance. Use the Mitsubishi Grade Cross-Reference Tool or the general cross-reference to find equivalents across brands.
Why do you list 17 brands but only 8 have full pages?
We've invested in full brand pages for the 8 highest-demand brands (KORLOY, Kyocera, Mitsubishi, Sumitomo, Tungaloy, TaeguTec, ZCC·CT, Kennametal) and the 2 house brands (BEYOND, OYYU). The remaining 7 brands (Sandvik, Iscar, Walter, SECO, Duracarb, Lamina, Vargus) have on-demand stub pages. For any on-demand brand, send us a part number, grade, and quantity, and we'll quote availability within 24 hours.
