Unlike traditional carbide, the \u003cstrong\u003eNS9530 cermet grade\u003c\/strong\u003e (Ceramic-Metal composite) provides unparalleled resistance to built-up edge (BUE) and chemical wear. This results in a workpiece with a bright, \"mirror-like\" appearance that often eliminates the need for secondary grinding or polishing. The 16mm edge length provides significant stability for profiling larger components, while the 0.4mm radius ensures high-precision details and superior surface Ra values.

For stainless finishing, we recommend the AH725 carbide grade for better toughness.
