B40For heavy interrupted machining ｜ CBN for machining hardened material

High performance, low cost CBN

Recommended for heavy interrupted cuts

Excellent toughness and stable machining
Ideal for hardened materials of HRC 55 or higher

Product video

Features

  • Exceptional toughness due to a special TiN binder blended with the CBN
  • Chipping resistance achieves stable machining through heavy interruptions
