Grades Igetalloy (Micro-Fine Grained Carbide) Carbide The Igetalloy micro-fine grained carbide series provides world class levels of micro-fine grain structure and delivers superior performance in small drills and other tools. Igetalloy micro-fine grained carbides feature a WC structure of between 0.2 to 1μm, and are extremely strong and hard. They also provide excellent sharpness and superb surface quality on worked surfaces. A Grades These features give excellent performance in a variety of applications from ø0.1mm PCB drills and endmill materials, to thin slitting blades and precision dies. ● Ultra-fine Grain ● Fine-grained Carbide Carbide Coated XF1 (Grain Size 0.2μm) AF0 (Grain Size 0.5μm) H1 (Grain Size 1.0μm) Cermet Ceramic Carbide Layer CBN Properties Properties Classification Grades Grain Size Co Content TRS Hardness Hardness HV Characteristics Applications PCD (μm) (wt%) (GPa) (HRA) (GPa) XF1 0.2 9.0 4.0 93.5 19.2 World's smallest grained carbide.
