Grade Details – Key Grade Characteristics
CA025P is a high-performance CVD-coated carbide grade engineered specifically for steel and cast iron machining applications. The multi-layer coating architecture combines a TiCN base layer with an Al₂O₃ thermal barrier and a TiN top layer, delivering exceptional wear resistance and thermal stability.
- Wear Resistance: The Al₂O₃ layer provides superior abrasion resistance at high cutting temperatures, extending tool life by up to 30% compared to uncoated grades.
- Thermal Stability: Operating effectively up to 900°C, CA025P maintains hardness and chemical stability during high-speed steel machining.
- Adhesion Resistance: The TiN top layer minimizes built-up edge (BUE) formation when machining low-carbon and sticky steels.
- Substrate Toughness: The fine-grained WC-Co substrate offers excellent fracture resistance for interrupted cuts and unstable machining conditions.
- Coating Adhesion: Advanced CVD process ensures strong interlayer bonding, preventing premature coating delamination under cyclic thermal loads.
Grade Comparison Matrix
Compare CA025P with other popular Kyocera grades to select the optimal solution for your application:

Recommended Cutting Conditions
The following table provides starting parameters for common workpiece materials. Always begin at conservative values and optimize based on machine capability and workpiece stability:
| Material | Cutting Speed Vc (m/min) | Feed fn (mm/rev) | Depth of Cut ap (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mild Steel | 160–240 | 0.12–0.30 | 1.0–3.0 |
| Carbon Steel | 130–190 | 0.08–0.20 | 0.5–2.0 |
| Alloy Steel | 90–140 | 0.05–0.15 | 0.3–1.2 |
| Cast Iron | 130–190 | 0.08–0.20 | 0.5–2.0 |
| Stainless Steel | 90–140 | 0.05–0.15 | 0.3–1.2 |
Values are starting recommendations. Adjust based on machine rigidity, workpiece stability, and coolant application. Use coolant for stainless steel and alloy steel applications.
Operating Guidelines
- Tool Setup: Ensure insert seat is clean and free of debris before clamping. Use correct torque wrench for clamping screw (typically 2.5–3.5 N·m).
- Coolant: High-pressure coolant (≥70 bar) is recommended for chip evacuation in deep-hole turning and stainless steel applications.
- Entry Angle: Maintain a tool cutting edge angle between 45° and 95° for optimal chip control and insert life.
- Speed Ramp: Start at the lower end of the recommended speed range and increase gradually while monitoring tool wear patterns.
- Feed Rate: Do not exceed maximum feed recommendations to avoid insert fracture. Reduce feed by 15–20% for interrupted cuts.
- Insert Change: Replace insert when flank wear (VB) reaches 0.3 mm or when surface finish degrades noticeably.
- Storage: Store in original packaging in a dry environment. Avoid contact with corrosive substances.
Toolholder Compatibility
Ensure proper toolholder selection for safe and effective insert clamping:
| Toolholder Type | Compatible Series | Insert Size | Clamping |
|---|---|---|---|
| External Turning | MTJNR / MTJNL | 16 (11/16") | Lever Lock |
| External Turning | STGCR / STGCL | 16 (11/16") | Lever Lock |
| Internal Boring | S-TQCR / S-TQCL | 16 (11/16") | Screw Clamp |
Note: Always verify toolholder compatibility using the insert shape, size, and clamping method before purchase. Contact our technical support team for application-specific recommendations.
