ALTERNATIVE GRADES FOR STEEL MACHINING NOTE: Grades shown above ending with ‘2’ can be run at higher cutting speeds (25%) and are going to last longer. YBC151 (Gold) Substrate with excellent wear-resistance, in combination with MT-Ti(CN), thick layer Al2O3,TiN coating. It is an ideal grade for finishing steel, cast steel and stainless steel under high speed and dry machining condition. YBC251 (Gold) Cutting edge with special strength and toughness, in an optimal combination with MT-Ti (CN), thick layer Al2O3, TiN coating. It is a suitable grades for a wide application. It is good for the finishing, semi-finishing and light roughing of steel, cast steel and stainless steel.
