The Vortex CBN Turning Insert for Hardened Steel — model TCGW16T308-CBN30 — is a non-regrindable, single-edge insert designed specifically for turning hardened steels. Built to deliver consistent performance in tough materials, it helps shops reduce tool changes and keep your turning operations moving smoothly.

Designed for engineers, machinists, and shop-floor buyers, this CBN insert eliminates the need for regrinding in many applications. For best results, use double clamp turning tools or boring bars to minimize vibration and extend tool life, delivering stable cuts and reliable results.

• Non-regrindable single-edge design: Simplifies setup and reduces downtime by providing a reliable cutting edge that doesn’t require regrinding for hardened steel applications.
• CBN insert optimized for hardened steel: Offers high wear resistance and longer edge life when cutting hardened materials, helping maintain consistent dimensions and finish.
• Best performance with double clamp tooling: Minimizes vibration and chatter when paired with double clamp turning tools or boring bars, extending tool life and delivering smoother surfaces.

In practice, the Vortex CBN Turning Insert helps you maintain tight tolerances, improve process stability, and reduce downtime in hardened-steel turning work. Its reliable performance supports efficient, repeatable results from setup to finish.
