Description

CCGT03S102L-F VP15TF

Miniature Finishing Specialist | Miracle PVD Coating | Swiss-Lathe Grade

Technical Breakdown

VP15TF Grade (Miracle PVD Carbide): This grade features a high-toughness micro-grain carbide substrate coated with a proprietary Al-Ti-N Miracle Coating. Unlike brittle cermets, VP15TF is designed to handle interrupted cuts and prevents thermal cracking. It is the gold standard for machining Stainless Steel, Alloy Steel, and Super Alloys where edge security is paramount.

L-F Chipbreaker (Left-Hand Finishing): A precision-ground, sharp-edge geometry optimized for Ultra-Light Depths of Cut. The "F" series design ensures that even at miniature scales, chips are broken and evacuated efficiently, preventing "bird-nesting" and protecting the high-quality surface finish of your workpiece.

Recommended Cutting Parameters

*VP15TF is highly resistant to built-up edge. Use with consistent coolant flow for best results in Stainless Steel.

Workpiece Material Speed (Vc) Feed (fn) Depth (Ap)
Stainless Steel (304/316) 60 - 130 m/min 0.02 - 0.08 mm/r 0.05 - 0.50 mm
Alloy Steel (4140/8620) 80 - 180 m/min 0.03 - 0.10 mm/r 0.10 - 0.60 mm
Titanium / Super Alloys 30 - 60 m/min 0.02 - 0.06 mm/r 0.05 - 0.30 mm

Pro-Tip: VP15TF vs NX2525

VP15TF (PVD Carbide): Your most versatile choice. Use this for interrupted cuts, stainless steel, and when the setup isn't 100% rigid. It is significantly tougher than cermet.

NX2525 (Cermet): Switch to cermet only for continuous finishing in steel to achieve a mirror finish. Cermet will chip if used in heavy interrupted cuts or gummy alloys where VP15TF excels.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide

How do I choose the correct specification?

When choosing CNC cutting tools, check the full model code, dimensions, grade and selected variant before ordering. Do not rely on the product image alone.

How can I check compatibility with my existing setup?

For carbide inserts, tool holders, drills and end mills, compare the mounting dimensions, connection type and manufacturer's specifications with your holder or machine. If you are unsure, share your existing part number and machining application with us before ordering.

What quantity and price unit am I ordering?

Check the product listing for the selling unit, pack quantity and included components. If it is unclear whether the price is per piece or per pack, or whether a tool body and inserts are sold separately, contact us before purchasing.

How should I choose cutting parameters?

Select cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut using the relevant manufacturer's recommendations for your tool model, workpiece material, machine conditions and coolant method. The same settings are not suitable for every product or application.

Are bulk discounts available?
