BZN M6500 PCBN
Type: Full Round Blanks and Cut Tips
Number of Grades: 2
Description: Extremely versatile high-cBN content PCBN grade that signficantly enhances tool performance in a broad range of machining applications.
BZN M6500 General-Purpose Grade
Hyperion Materials & Technologies has designed a highly concentrated cBN grade for hardened steel machining called BZN M6500. BZN M6500 contains a fine grain size and high cBN content that significantly improves sinter quality, binder dispersion, and machining performance while pushing the limits of PCBN technology.
BZN M6500 drives tool life improvement. Featuring a reduced flank wear groove width, the high-performance grade produces tools with exceptional toughness and high-fracture resistance.
Simplify Operations with BZN M6500
BZN M6500's versatility enables toolmakers to streamline operations and optimize costs by employing one PCBN grade for a broad range of applications. Toolmakers can count on M6500 for efficient fabrication and consistent, high-quality tooling. Deliver exceptional performance in continuous, interrupted, and heavy-interrupted machining of a variety of materials. M6500 offers toolmakers exceptional time and cost savings, enabling them the reliability and peace of mind that their customers expect in high-production environments.
Key Applications
BZN M6500 is designed to improve the edge toughness of hardened steels, which results in outstanding edge quality and retention. It contains 90% cBN content with a 1-micron average grain size, a carbide-backed format, and is EDM cuttable. M6500 is also offered in full rounds and cut tips with a 58mm usable diameter and is recommended for use in the following applications:
- Sintered alloy machining
- Cast iron machining
- Severe interrupted machining of hardened steel
- Tool/die steel machining
- Superalloy finish turning
