Carbide brazed tips are cutting tool inserts that consist of a small piece of carbide material securely bonded to a tool body or shank through a brazing process. The carbide material used in these tips is known for its exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and overall durability. The brazing process involves heating the carbide tip and the steel body to a high temperature and then fusing them together using a filler material.

One of the primary advantages of carbide brazed tips is their hardness. Carbide is significantly harder than high-speed steel (HSS), which makes these tips more resistant to wear and allows them to maintain sharp cutting edges for longer periods. The higher hardness also enables the tips to withstand higher cutting speeds and feeds, leading to increased productivity and improved machining efficiency.

Carbide brazed tips are incredibly versatile and find applications in a wide range of machining operations, including turning, milling, drilling, and boring. They can be used to machine various materials such as steels, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and composites. The versatility of carbide brazed tips makes them suitable for both general-purpose and specialized applications.
