VP15TF Grade & F-Breaker Details
VP15TF (PVD Coated Carbide): This grade features the Miracle Coating technology. It is a micro-grain carbide substrate with an Al-Ti-N PVD coating that provides high hardness and excellent oxidation resistance. It is particularly effective at preventing built-up edge (BUE) when machining sticky materials like 304 or 316 stainless steel.
F-Breaker (Finishing): The F-type chipbreaker is a precision-ground finishing breaker. It offers superior chip control at very low depths of cut, ensuring that chips are broken effectively without scratching the high surface finish of the workpiece.
Recommended Cutting Parameters
| Workpiece Material | Cutting Speed (Vc) | Feed Rate (f) | Depth of Cut (ap) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stainless Steel | 80 - 180 m/min | 0.03 - 0.12 mm/rev | 0.1 - 0.8 mm |
| Carbon/Alloy Steel | 100 - 220 m/min | 0.05 - 0.15 mm/rev | 0.1 - 1.0 mm |

VP15TF is the first choice for finishing where toughness and edge sharpness are required, especially for stainless steel. However, if you are machining stable steel components and require the absolute highest surface gloss, consider the NX2525 cermet grade. For high-speed production of cast iron, the UC5115 CVD grade remains the top performer.

Technical FAQ & Buying Guide
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.
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.
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.
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.
