TK1000 and TK2000 have been developed with cast iron in mind and provide excellent reliability, improved cutting data and increased tool life.

The reliable duo, TK1000 and TK2000, allow you to achieve higher productivity without sacrificing reliability. Where many cast irons have problems with consistency and can vary from batch to batch - often within the same batch grades TK1000 and TK2000 are optimized to deliver high performance regardless of the variations in material quality.


ISO-K Grade TK1000
TK1000 is classified as an ISO K10 and P05 grade. The main target areas for TK1000 are applications where the primary demands are high speed and wear resistance in machining of both gray and ductile iron. The specially designed properties of TK1000 also make it an excellent alternative for the turning of hard and abrasive steels.


First Choice For:
• High speeds
• Dry machining
• Cast irons - hard and abrasive alloys
• Peak productivity

ISO-K Grade TK2000
TK2000 is classified as an ISO K20 and P15 grade. The main target areas for TK2000 are applications where the primary demands are toughness and reliability in machining of both ductile and grey iron.

Due to the combination of superior edge toughness and a tough, wear resistant coating, it is possible to achieve peak performance even under unstable conditions and severe interrupted cuts. TK2000 has also proven to be an excellent choice when machining soft ductile steels and applications where a good surface finish is required.

First Choice For:
• Interrupted cuts
• High feeds
• Cast irons - soft and ductile steels
• Reliability and versatility
