Carbide Inserts for Multiple Materials

Choose these premium turning carbide inserts to cut a variety of materials without changing out your tool.

Economy Carbide Inserts

Use these carbide inserts for general purpose turning.

Carbide Inserts for Steel

Optimized for use on steel, these inserts can run at higher cutting speeds and will last longer than inserts for multiple materials.

Carbide Inserts for Stainless Steel

Heat resistant and shaped for turning stainless steel specifically, these inserts will last longer than inserts for multiple materials.

Carbide Inserts for Non-Ferrous Materials

Cut aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous materials with these premium inserts.

Carbide Inserts for Heat-Resistant Super Alloys

Heat resistant and wear resistant, these inserts cut super alloys—such as Inconel and Waspaloy—and titanium better than general use inserts.

Carbide Inserts for Cast Iron

Made of an abrasion-resistant carbide designed for turning cast iron, these inserts will last longer than inserts for multiple materials.

Turning Carbide Insert Holders

Secure carbide inserts inside these holders for stable turning.

Economy Indexable Turning Tool Sets

These sets have five indexable turning tools with carbide inserts and a wood storage stand. When one edge of a tool's insert dulls, rotate it to use a sharp edge.

Economy Indexable Turning Tools

These tools come with carbide inserts installed. When one edge of the insert dulls, rotate it to use a sharp edge.

Alumina Ceramic Inserts

These inserts are made with a black alumina ceramic on the cutting edges. Compared to carbide inserts, ceramic lasts longer in hardened-steel tooling applications because it is chemically inert and has better heat resistance.

Cubic Boron Nitride Inserts

Resisting wear and fractures when cutting hardened steel, these cubic boron nitride inserts last longer than carbide inserts.

Cutoff and Grooving Carbide Inserts

Combine a holder and carbide insert to perform cutoff and grooving tasks on a lathe.

Indexable Cutoff and Grooving Carbide Inserts

Cut square corner grooves in a workpiece or cut completely through a part.

Indexable Grooving and Profiling Carbide Inserts

The rounded nose on these inserts contours the outside of the workpiece and cuts grooves with rounded edges.

Carbide Inserts for Boring Carbide
Insert Holders with Coolant Hole

Pair one of these inserts with a compatible boring carbide insert holder with coolant hole.

Boring Carbide Insert Holders

These holders conform to ANSI standards.

Economy Indexable Boring Carbide Insert Holders

Use these tools to enlarge existing holes to precise diameters. They come with an insert installed. When one edge of the insert dulls, rotate it to use a sharp edge.

Economy Indexable Boring
Carbide Insert Holder Sets

These sets have a variety of indexable boring insert holders with carbide inserts and a wood storage stand. When one edge of a tool's insert dulls, rotate it to use a sharp edge to enlarge existing holes to precise diameters.

High-Performance Grooving Carbide Inserts

These inserts can cut grooves on both the outside and inside of a workpiece depending on the holder used.

High-Performance Threading Carbide Inserts

Install these inserts into a compatible holder to cut external or internal threads on a workpiece.

Economy Indexable Threading Tools

A carbide insert comes installed on these tools.

Carbide Inserts for Internal
Profiling Carbide Insert Holders

Combine a carbide insert with a compatible internal profiling holder to create a tool that can contour the interior wall of a hollow workpiece.

Carbide Inserts for Replaceable Carbide-Insert
End Mills for Manual Milling Machines

Pair these carbide inserts with our Replaceable Carbide-Insert End Mills for Manual Milling Machines.
