M5C90
One shot roughing and finishing face milling aluminum cutter
M5C90 is a custom-made combination milling cutter that provides both roughing and finishing in the same tool without the need for adjustment. M5C90 is based on the M5B90 super finishing face milling cutter, but with an extra row of inserts tangentially positioned on the outer diameter. It smoothly and swiftly machines parts without burrs, scratches, or breakages, resulting in , high feed rates, and time and cost savings.
M5C90 uses the same standard, globally available inserts as the M5B90 face milling cutter, and M5C90 exhibits the same superior tool life. The positioning of the inserts follows the same concept as for M5B90 shown below.
The green color area shows the roughing row, and the blue area the finishing row.
Note: This concept is a face milling cutter, but there is a step form between the wall and the face.

Features and benefits
- Machines aluminum parts without scratches, burrs, or breakages
- Replaces the need for two tools–no roughing is needed
- High feed rates
- Direct finishing operations
- No adjustment needed
- Only one spare part, the insert screw
- Limited to wide engagement milling operations
- Uses the same standard, globally available insert assortment as the M5B90 face milling cutter
- Suitable for MQL machining
Application
- Roughing and finishing face milling of cylinder heads, cylinder blocks, and all aluminum parts within wide cutter engagements (not applicable on thin wall parts)
- Able to machine up to 4 mm (0.157 inch) depth of cut with an occasional increase to 6 mm (0.236 inch), with direct finishing quality on parts

Turning inserts and grades for steel
Whether you are looking for turning insert grades for unmanned production or custom-made components, we have reliable insert grades that offer predictable tool life, high machine utilization and the surface quality you need.
GC4425, GC4415 and GC4405
The new generation steel turning insert grades GC4425, GC4415 and GC4405 deliver improved performance in every way. Coated with second generation Inveio® technology, they have a broad range of applications and are recommended for continuous and interrupted cuts. First choice grade GC4425 delivers improved wear resistance, heat resistance and toughness in a wide application range. Grade GC4415 complements GC4425 with enhanced performance when more heat resistance is needed. Grade GC4405 is first choice for high metal removal rates in stable conditions where plastic deformation properties are demanding.
Find your grade
Our steel insert grade assortment consists of CVD- and PVD-coated carbide grades for various machining conditions. Use the information below to find the right grade for your production. Higher productivity (vc) means increased plastic deformation and crater wear resistance. Chipping resistance and edge line security is dependent on how stable the machining conditions are.

GC4425
First-choice CVD-coated grade with Inveio® technology for finishing to roughing of steel and steel castings in continuous and interrupted cuts at high metal removal rates.
GC4415
CVD-coated grade with Inveio® technology for finishing to roughing in applications with continuous cut to light intermittence in stable conditions when more heat resistance is needed.
GC4405
CVD-coated high feed roughing grade with Inveio® technology. Recommended for stable conditions when a higher metal removal rate is needed in medium to rough steel applications.
GC4335
CVD-coated grade with Inveio® technology for rough turning of steel and steel castings. Recommended for interrupted cuts and unfavourable conditions.
