High speed, high feed turning

Available in TT8115 and TT8125 grades, offering exceptional wear resistance and toughness, the Alpha-AL is suited to mass production operations in the automotive and heavy industry sectors, offering extended tool life. With tool life way beyond competitor grades, the Alpha-AL promotes a stable cutting performance across a wide application range. The Alpha-AL inserts are suited to a diverse application range, with the TT8115 grade applicable to high speed machining of low carbon steel and low carbon alloy steels at feeds of 300 to 800m/min, while carbon steel and alloy steel exhibit a machining range of 100 to 400m/min. More applicable to lower speed and higher feed machining, the TT8125 is ideal for machining mild steel, low carbon steel and low carbon alloy steel at between 200 and 500m/min. The TT8125 will replace the current TT3500 grade and on carbon and alloy steel, the TT8125 comfortably machines at 100 to 350m/min.
