CVD Coated Grades

CVD coated grades start with solid substrates, many with cobalt-enriched surfaces to promote coating adhesion and enhance cutting characteristics. Coatings are applied through chemical vapor deposition (CVD) in specialized furnaces. Materials such as titanium carbide, titanium nitride, titanium carbonitride, and aluminum oxide are applied in various thicknesses and combinations to create a variety of grades tailored to specific metalworking applications. These grades offer cobalt-enriched substrates which produce cutting edges with increased edge strength and fracture resistance. CVD coated grades can be used for machining cast irons, steels, stainless steels, and exotic materials.
