TOUGH mounted points

For universal use on materials that are difficult to machine

The TOUGH type is specifically designed for use on titanium materials, nickel-based and cobalt-based alloys, hardened steel components and built-up weld deposits. Its applications include weld dressing on repair welds and reworking on turbine blades during aircraft maintenance, as well as regrinding of repair welds in tool and mould-making.

TOUGH-type mounted points consist of a vitrified bond with an aluminium oxide mixture of ceramic oxide grain and white aluminium oxide.

Advantages:

Cool grinding as the grain mixture is easy to break down.
High stock removal rates and very good tool life.
Constant stock removal rates thanks to the self-sharpening qualities of the ceramic oxide grain.

Materials:

Hardened, heat-treated steels over 1,200 N/mm² (> 38 HRC)
Titanium alloys
Titanium
High-temperature-resistant materials
Nickel-based and cobalt-based alloys

Application tips

TOUGH mounted points perform best at a cutting speed of 30 to 50 m/s.
Mounted points should be used with a flexible shaft drive or a straight grinder.
TOUGH mounted points are used for tool and mould-making as well as engine and turbine construction.
TOUGH mounted points should be used with an adjusted contact pressure.
Use dressing stones for profiling and dressing.
Use coarse grit sizes for stock removal and rough grinding. Use fine grit sizes for fine grinding.
