AL Geometry is Versatile, Reliable, and Affordable

The AL geometry inserts are a reliable and universal solution for medium to finish turning applications of aluminum and other non-ferrous materials.

Features:

  • Polished rake surface for smoother flow of chips
  • Positive & sharp cutting edge for enhanced tooling performance
  • Two Grade Options: WU10HT, uncoated microfine carbide grade & WU05PT, AlTiN coated PVD grade
  • Multiple Styles Available: C, D, R, S, T, V

This expanded portfolio of turning inserts can be used to machine a wide variety of end components across the Aerospace, Transportation, and General Engineering industries. Multiple grades and insert styles are available to add tooling optionality and versatility. Strategically engineered product features also include a highly polished rake surface to improve flow of chips, and a positive angled, share cutting-edge both reduces cutting forces and edge build-up post machining.
