Turning

Carbide Inserts for Multiple Materials

Choose these premium turning carbide inserts to cut a variety of materials without changing out your tool.

Economy Carbide Inserts

Use these carbide inserts for general purpose turning.

Carbide Inserts for Stainless Steel

Heat resistant and shaped for turning stainless steel specifically, these inserts will last longer than inserts for multiple materials.

Carbide Inserts for Steel

Optimized for use on steel, these inserts can run at higher cutting speeds and will last longer than inserts for multiple materials.

Carbide Inserts for Heat-Resistant Super Alloys

Heat resistant and wear resistant, these inserts cut super alloys—such as Inconel and Waspaloy—and titanium better than general use inserts.

Carbide Inserts for Non-Ferrous Materials

Cut aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous materials with these premium inserts.

Carbide Inserts for Cast Iron

Made of an abrasion-resistant carbide designed for turning cast iron, these inserts will last longer than inserts for multiple materials.

Turning Carbide Insert Holders

Secure carbide inserts inside these holders for stable turning.

Economy Indexable Turning Tools

These tools come with carbide inserts installed. When one edge of the insert dulls, rotate it to use a sharp edge.

Economy Indexable Turning Tool Sets

These sets have five indexable turning tools with carbide inserts and a wood storage stand. When one edge of a tool's insert dulls, rotate it to use a sharp edge.

Alumina Ceramic Inserts

These inserts are made with a black alumina ceramic on the cutting edges. Compared to carbide inserts, ceramic lasts longer in hardened-steel tooling applications because it is chemically inert and has better heat resistance.

Cubic Boron Nitride Inserts for Hardened Steel

Resisting wear and fractures when cutting hardened steel, these cubic boron nitride inserts last longer than carbide inserts.

Carbide-Tipped Turning Lathe Tools

Constructed of a carbide tip brazed onto a ground steel shank, these tools are more wear resistant than high-speed steel tools.

Diamond-Tipped Turning Lathe Tools

The diamond tip on these tools offers superior cutting performance on nonferrous and nonmetallic materials, such as aluminum, copper, fiberglass, and plastic.

Carbide-Tipped Turning Lathe Tool Sets

Constructed of a carbide tip brazed onto a ground steel shank, these tools are more wear resistant than high-speed steel tools.
