GC3330
Hard, CVD-coated grade with thick Inveio™ coating is designed for medium to rough milling of all types of cast iron in average to stable conditions, for wet and dry machining.Benefits and features
Inveio™ – Uni-directional Crystal Orientation
Tightly packed uni-directional crystals create a strong barrier toward the cutting zone and chip for improved crater and flank wear resistance.
GC3330 Leads the Way for Cast Iron Milling
As predictable performance becomes increasingly important in many machining processes, GC3330 is meeting the needs of today’s manufacturing.
Getting Started with Cast Iron Milling
Cast iron can be divided into malleable, gray, nodular, compact graphite iron (CGI), and austempered ductile iron (ADI). Learn more on how to overcome common cast iron milling challenges.
Find your grade
Our wide range of cast iron insert grades includes CVD-, PVD-coated and uncoated carbide grades and CBN-tipped and ceramic insert grades for various machining conditions. Use the information below to find the right grade for your production.
