Bordo HSSE-V3 TiAlN Coated Red Band Spiral Flute Tap

• HSSE-V3 HSSE with 3% Vanadium high-performance tap.
• TiAlN (Titanium Aluminium Nitride) coating provides higher temperature resistance and improved surface hardness.
• Optimised for machining tough treatable steel.
• Spiral flute with 15° helix angle.
• Designed for tapping blind holes where the right hand spiral forces swarf out of the hole and prevents clogging which may cause breakage or spoiled threads.
• Designed to withstand the high stress and high heat associated with CNC production tapping.
• The mechanical properties of steel are influenced diversely by the addition of alloying elements and heat treatment processes, resulting in some high-strength, quenched and tempered steels or hardened steels.
• TiAlN coating increases tool surface hardness to 87Rc.
• For machining materials with Hardness < 470 HB : Tensile Strength <1500 N/mm².

About Drill Bit Surface Treatment

• Violet / Grey TiAlN (Titanium Aluminium Nitride - TiAlN) A violet/grey finish with a higher hardness than both TiN and TiCN coating utilises aluminium in the coating which imparts greater oxidation stability.
• This stability is a result of a very thin film (of Aluminium Oxide) which is formed on the surface of the TiAlN.
• This film is self-repairing which leads to increased tool service life.This high performance coating is able to withstand much higher temperatures which allows increased speeds and feeds and semi-dry machining operations.
• TiAlN coating is especially useful when machining cast iron and tough steels.

About Tough Treatable Steel Red Band

• The mechanical properties of materials are influenced diversely by the addition of alloying elements and heat treatment processes, resulting in some high-strength, quenched and tempered steels or hardened steels.
• This range has its own unique set of machining requirements which are satisfied by the Red Band Series.
• TiAlN coating increases tool surface hardness to 87Rc.
• For machining materials with Hardness.
