TP2501: VERSATILE PRODUCTIVITY. Where versatility is needed and working conditions may not be perfect, TP2501 is the first choice for maximising manufacturing output under most varying productivity, cutting data and workpiece material requirements.An estimated 25% of steel turning applications feature working conditions that demand TP2501’s grade design and properties. TP2501 Grade: Duratomic® technology coated grade. Designed with high wear resistance and edge strength applicable in a wide range of turning applications in steels as well as many stainless steels and cast irons. Ti(C,N) + Al2O3 + Used Edge Detection (Chrome) M3 Chipbreaker: First choice for medium-rough machining and also the most versatile Seco chipbreaker. In most cases, it is the only chipbreaker needed. Offers the best useful life and best chipbreaking in a wide range of cutting data and workpiece materials. Suitable for precision forged and cast workpieces (NNS or Near Net Shape workpieces) as regards both chip control and edge strength. Indicative machining range: f = 0,15-0,50 mm/rev, ap = 0,5-5,0 mm.
