Kennametal Inc. has added an efficient new cutting tool to its portfolio of solid carbide end mills, featuring enhanced wear and oxidation resistance. It is designed with a distinctive PVD coating technology that is reported to deliver extended tool life for job shops machining stainless steel, titanium and other high-temperature alloys for aerospace, energy, transportation, mold and die and general engineering industries.

The KCSM15A solid end milling grade features a new copper color design for easier wear identification, enabling improved tool life observation and reconditioning management. Enhanced process stability and minimized edge buildup allows the KCSM15A to level up a moldmaker’s machining operations, according to the company.

Available platforms include Harvi III, Harvi III Aerospace, Harvi II Long and RSM II.
