About Turning Inserts

PROEDGE stocks the full ISO insert shape library for external and internal turning. Seven distinct grades cover every material group: UC70 cermet excels at high-speed steel finishing with mirror-quality surface finish; UP1425/UP1225 CVD-coated carbides dominate steel roughing and semi-finishing; UM5625/UM5825 PVD grades handle stainless steel; UK3030 ceramic-based grade machines cast iron at high speed; YC1125 is optimised for interrupted cuts and difficult conditions; UN07 uncoated for non-ferrous. All insert designations follow ISO 1832 for universal compatibility with standard toolholders.

Key Features

UC70 cermet: ultra-hard TiN+TiC binder — Ra < 0.4 μm on steel finishing
UP1425: MT-CVD TiCN/Al₂O₃ — heavy roughing steel at high feeds
UP1225: balanced steel grade for semi-finish at moderate parameters
UM5625 / UM5825: PVD TiAlN optimised for austenitic and duplex stainless
UK3030: whisker-reinforced — high-speed grey and ductile cast iron
YC1125: shock-resistant grade — interrupted cuts, forged and scaled surfaces
