While NS9530 is a tough grade, we recommend it primarily for continuous finishing to prevent micro-chipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left: 5px solid #47479F; background: #f9f9f9; padding: 15px; margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin: 0;\"\u003eQ: What is the benefit of the 0.8mm radius on this cermet insert?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 5px 0 0;\"\u003eA: The 0.8mm radius (VCMT160408) provides a stronger cutting edge and allows for slightly higher feed rates compared to the 0.4mm version while still maintaining excellent surface finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border-left: 5px solid #47479F; background: #f9f9f9; padding: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin: 0;\"\u003eQ: Is coolant required for this grade?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 5px 0 0;\"\u003eA: Cermet performs exceptionally well in dry machining.

This leverages the cermet's chemical stability to produce a mirror finish that standard carbide cannot match. **BEYOND CNC** - Reliability in Every Pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #888; text-align: center; margin-top: 10px;\"\u003e© Engineering Specification by Beyond Li - Global CNC Tooling Authority\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tungaloy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43170872426668,"sku":"VCMT160408-24 NS9530","price":69.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/7328\/1708\/files\/Tungaloy_VCMT160408-24_NS9530_35_Degree_Rhombic_Cermet_Turning_Insert.jpg?v=1775195784","url":"https:\/\/cnchome-beyond.com\/products\/tungaloy-vcmt160408-24-ns9530-cermet-turning-insert","provider":"CNCHome-Beyond","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
