Sumicarbide AC410K Grade For Cast Iron

SUMITOMO’S NEW AC410K GRADE FOR HIGH SPEED CAST IRON TURNING NOW AVAILABLE

Mount Prospect, IL – Featuring new coating technology, Sumitomo’s AC410K grade consists of two types of coating layers – the Super FF Alumina layer and the Super FF TiCN layer – both of which provide excellent peeling resistance and improved overall insert stability.

Its ultra-thick, inner Super FF Alumina layer provides exceptional thermal resistance, while the outer Super FF TiCN layer excels in chipping resistance.  The grade combines these coatings with an exceptionally hard carbide substrate, resulting in excellent wear resistance in continuous to light interrupted machining of gray and ductile cast iron.

Additionally, the excellent wear resistance and superior toughness of the AC410K have at least DOUBLED the tool life of conventional cast iron grades. Consisting of a wider application range, the AC410K is capable of covering medium to high-speed machining applications.

The AC410K grade is available in positive insert styles for light to medium cutting applications and negative insert styles for light to rough cutting applications.
