Always look for grades that can withstand high temperatures and cut force so that you can find outstanding durability from turning products. Stainless steel turning often causes substantial friction and heat when turning the materials. This is why it is essential to find turning grades that can withstand heat and provide a long durable life. Highly productive turning grades can withstand the high temperatures of turning these materials without losing their edge.

The inserts are used for shaping a variety of metals and steel alloys. Using the right shape and quality of the insert will be necessary to achieve the desired shape for suitable turning materials. SCTools provide various shapes, sizes, and qualities for turning and boring multiple metals and alloys. Here you will learn the importance of size, shapes, and grades of insert shapes and which ones you need to accomplish your tooling needs.

Turning is part of the machining process involving a cutting tool (bit) that moves linearly while the workpiece rotates. Finding the right turning insert depends heavily on the material being used. Determining a suitable grade for the turning material, such as hardened steel, is crucial. It calls for highly durable rigid insert grades.

Using the right shape of an insert with turning applications is essential, and it is determined by the appropriate point angle for strength and economy. The correct size of the insert will depend upon the application requirements and the space for the cutting tool in the application. Large insert sizes require more stability with heavy machinery; the standard insert size generally increases up to 25mm. Upon completion of the project, the height of rotation can often reduce the scale of the insert.

SCTools offers a convenient chart to help you determine the right insert shape for any project. Insert shape also dramatically affects how deep or what angle it cuts into the metal. Finding the appropriate turning insert shape will require asking yourself if your project is a rough, finished, or general turning job? Once you understand the scope of the job itself, it is time to identify the tools you need by doing quick research to ensure you are using the right tools.
