Horn's high-performance IG6 and SG3 coatings extend the service life of carbide tools

Horn has introduced its new high-performance IG6 and SG3 coatings.

IG6 is a copper colored aluminum-titanium-silica nitride (AlSiTiN) coating designed for use in machining materials P and M with grooving inserts type S224 and S229. In conjunction with the carbide substrate, the coating allows for faster material removal rates and significantly extended wear resistance in machining materials P and M. Standard inserts are available from stock.

SG3 is designed for use in titanium and super-alloys as well as turning and grooving applications in hardened materials, up to 58 HRC. The coating can be function in temperatures up to 1,100 degrees Celsius. The Supermini system 105 with SG3 coating is available from stock.
