Brazed Carbide Tools

Brazed carbide tools consist of a carbide tip (cutting edge) that is brazed (permanently bonded) onto a steel shank. These tools combine the toughness of steel with the hardness and wear resistance of carbide, making them an ideal solution for a variety of metal cutting and machining tasks.

Applications:

  • Turning, Facing & Boring Operations
  • Grooving & Parting Applications
  • Thread Cutting on Lathes
  • Roughing and Finishing in General Machining
  • Heavy-Duty Machining of Cast Iron, Steel, and Non-Ferrous Materials

Advantages:

  • Strong Bonding – Carbide tip is securely brazed for high cutting stability
  • Cost-Effective – More affordable than indexable tools for small-scale operations
  • Good Shock Resistance – Steel shank absorbs vibration and impact loads
  • No Tool Holder Needed – Simple setup and compatibility with conventional machines
  • Sharpenable – Cutting edge can be reground for extended tool life
