Grade Details – Key Grade Characteristics
Grade 160C is a premium cermet-grade carbide featuring a multi-layer AlCr (Aluminum Chrome) coating developed via Kyocera's proprietary PVD process. This grade offers:
- Exceptional Wear Resistance: Hardness exceeding 1800 HV ensures minimal flank wear even at elevated cutting speeds.
- Superior Heat Resistance: Oxidation threshold of 1,150°C enables stable performance in dry and high-speed machining.
- Optimized Chip Control: The substrate-coating interface minimizes built-up edge (BUE) on ferrous materials.
- Extended Tool Life: Field tests demonstrate 30–40% longer tool life compared to uncoated carbide in continuous drilling.

Chipbreaker Profile
The X05 geometry incorporates a precision-ground chipbreaker optimized for medium-feed drilling in steels and cast irons. Key features include:
- Positive Rake Angle: Reduces cutting force and minimizes heat generation at the tool tip.
- Curved Chip Groove: Promotes tight chip curling for reliable evacuation through internal coolant channels.
- Reinforced Cutting Edge: Micro-honed edge preparation (T-land 0.05 mm at 20°) enhances edge stability against intermittent cuts.
- Polished Flute Surface: Mirror-finish flutes reduce friction and prevent chip welding on sticky materials.
Recommended Applications & Workpiece Materials
| Material Group | Machinability | Recommended Vc (m/min) | Feed (mm/rev) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low Carbon Steel (S15C, 1018) | ★★★★★ Excellent | 100–140 | 0.15–0.25 |
| Medium Carbon Steel (S45C, 1045) | ★★★★★ Excellent | 90–130 | 0.12–0.22 |
| Alloy Steel (SCM440, 4140) | ★★★★☆ Very Good | 80–120 | 0.10–0.20 |
| Stainless Steel (SUS304, 316) | ★★★★☆ Very Good | 60–90 | 0.10–0.18 |
| Gray Cast Iron (FC250, G25) | ★★★★★ Excellent | 100–150 | 0.15–0.30 |
| Ductile Cast Iron (FCD500) | ★★★★☆ Very Good | 80–110 | 0.12–0.22 |
Application Map by Operation
| Operation Type | Suitability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Through-Hole Drilling (3D–5D) | ✓ Primary Application | Internal coolant recommended for depths >3D |
| Blind-Hole Drilling | ✓ Suitable | Reduce feed by 20% in last 1D to control burr |
| Stacked Plate Drilling | ✓ Suitable | Use rigid setup; peck cycle for plates >10 mm each |
| Cross-Hole Drilling | △ Caution | Reduce speed 30%; ensure adequate coolant pressure |
| Inclined Entry Drilling | ✓ Suitable | Use spot drill or reduced feed until full engagement |
Recommended Cutting Conditions
| Material | Cutting Speed Vc (m/min) | Feed fn (mm/rev) | Coolant |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carbon Steel | 100–140 | 0.15–0.25 | Wet (Internal) |
| Alloy Steel | 80–120 | 0.12–0.20 | Wet (Internal) |
| Stainless Steel | 60–90 | 0.10–0.18 | Wet (High Pressure) |
| Cast Iron | 100–150 | 0.15–0.30 | Dry / Wet |
| Aluminum Alloy | 150–250 | 0.15–0.35 | Wet / MQL |
Operating Guidelines
- Run-In Period: For the first 5 holes, reduce cutting speed by 20% to allow the coating to stabilize and achieve optimal adhesion.
- Coolant Pressure: Maintain minimum 3 MPa (30 bar) coolant pressure for internal coolant holes to ensure effective chip evacuation at depths >3D.
- Peck Cycle: Use peck drilling with 1D–2D peck depth for blind holes or when chip evacuation is compromised.
- Tool Life Monitoring: Monitor flank wear (VB) every 50 holes. Retire insert when VB exceeds 0.3 mm or when surface finish degrades visibly.
- Storage: Store inserts in original packaging away from direct sunlight and corrosive environments. Avoid contact between cutting edges.
