BALINIT® HARDLUBE: the high hardness and temperature resistance of the TiAlN coating provide effective wear protection for cutting edges while the outstanding frictional and lubrication properties of the WC/C coating allow a smooth chips flow. The result: higher manufacturing reliability thanks to consistent and reproducible behaviour.Recommended applications:
•
tapping and drilling in difficult to machine materials
•
MQL (minimum quantity lubrication) or dry machining
•
punching and forming (protection against cold welding)
