Punch Surface Coating
TiN - (Titanium Nitride) PVD Coating
Alteration Order Code: TIN -- Add 3 days to Delivery
TiN is the least expensive and most commonly used PVD (Physical vapor deposition) wear resistant coating offering:
- Excellent wear resistance on cutting edges and wear surfaces
- Excellent lubricity
- Suitable thermal stability for most cold work metalworking applications
- High microhardness of 2300 Vickers
Note: TiN works best when used with lubricants and is not recommended for uses in stainless steel, nickel, or copper applications
TiCN - (Titanium Carbon Nitride) PVD Coating
Alteration Order Code: TiCN -- Add 4 days to Delivery
TiCN has the broadest range of application use regarding PVD coating including stainless steel, nickel, and copper metal working operations offering:
- Higher hardness and lower coefficient of friction than TiN coating, resulting in extremely high wear resistance on cutting edges and wear surfaces
- Improved lubricity
- Extremely high micro hardness of 3000 Vickers
Note: Suitable for uses in stainless steel, nickel, or copper applications
TiAlN - (Titanium Aluminum Nitride) PVD Coating
Alteration Order Code: TAN -- Add 3 days to Delivery
TiAlN is ideal for applications where surface heat is generated, which converts the aluminum constituent to aluminum oxide for added protection against shear stress and wear resistance on cutting edges.
- High thermal stability
- Extremely high micro hardness of 3400 Vickers
