TaeguTec introduces Gold Rush insert coating grade

TaeguTec has introduced Gold Rush, a gold-coloured carbide insert coating grade, that provides both improved performance and an easy way to visually monitor the insert wear status.

Gold Rush coating is available for all TaeguTec insert ranges, including the T-Turn, T-Clamp, the Hole Making series and the T-Mill series. For the T-Turn range of products, TaeguTec has developed a number of grades with the Gold Rush insert coating. These include the TT8115, TT8125, TT8135, TT5100 and TT7100 for steel machining and the TT5080, TT9215, TT9225, TT9235 and TT9080 grades for stainless steel and super alloy machining. In TaeguTec's T-Clamp range – catering for a diverse range of turning operations that includes turning, parting, grooving and profiling – Gold Rush additions are the TT9100 and TT9080 for machining steel and the TT6300, TT6080 and TT9080 for cast iron. Additionally, TaeguTec has introduced the TT9080 and TT9300 Gold Rush grades to its hole making product line. T-Mill milling series Gold Rush additions for the machining of steel, alloy steels, stainless steel and cast iron, says TaeguTec, will enable the end-user to machine at higher speeds and feeds, thus improving cycle times and productivity.
