Sumitomo General Catalog 2025-2026

CBN Inserts CBN Insert Edge Specification CBN Insert Edge Treatment All CBN inserts are enhanced with the optimum cutting edge preparation for the various grades and geometries (shown on the right). This is to avoid cutting edge fracture caused by the heavy loads generated during the machining of high-hardness materials such as hardened steel. As the pioneer of CBN tools, CBN - SUMIBORON's vast selection of grades and edge treatment combinations makes Sumitomo the world leader for hardened steel machining. ■ CBN Insert Edge Specification Overview
