• (M) - Stainless Steels (Stainless Steel - Inox)

Lathe inserts from Korloy, a leading cutting tool manufacturer from Korea. The choice of the appropriate insert depends on the chipbreaker, that is the geometry that helps in breaking and removing the waste, as well as on the grade, which describes the microstructure and coating of the insert and directly affects hardness and brittleness. The cutting conditions (speed, feed, depth) must be carefully defined to achieve maximum tool performance and life.
