High-Performance ISO-Standard 55° Rhombic Negative Indexable Turning Cutters Featuring KORLOY NC3020 Advanced CVD Coated Carbide Substrate and -HM General-Purpose Chipbreaker for Exceptional Wear Resistance and Edge Stability in Steel and Alloy Steel Machining
1. Product Overview
"Which indexable turning insert provides superior wear resistance and precise chip breaking for high-efficiency carbon steel and alloy steel precision machining?" CNC machinists and manufacturing engineers consistently rely on the KORLOY DNMG150404-HM NC3020. This industrial-grade cutting insert combines KORLOY's field-proven NC3020 CVD multi-layer coated carbide grade with a versatile -HM chipbreaker geometry. Designed on a 55° rhombic negative platform featuring a 15mm edge length, a 4.76mm thickness ('04'), and a sharp 0.4mm corner radius, it delivers dependable chip evacuation, high thermal stability, and extended tool life across structural steels, carbon steels, and alloy components.
2. Product Key Features
- NC3020 Advanced CVD Coated Grade: Engineered with a resilient carbide substrate coated with a specialized CVD multi-layer film, providing superior resistance to flank wear and plastic deformation during continuous and semi-continuous steel turning.
- -HM General-Purpose Chipbreaker & 0.4mm Radius: Features an optimized groove configuration tailored for precise finishing and light medium cutting operations, ensuring stable chip breaking supported by a tight 0.4mm corner radius for fine surface finishes.
- Double-Sided Indexable Economy: Provides multiple usable cutting edges per insert, lowering overall tooling costs per component in high-volume production environments.
- Factory Sealed Box Packaging: Supplied in authentic KORLOY packaging containing 10 precision indexable inserts.
