The Vortex VCGW160408-CBN20 is a non-regrindable, single-edge turning insert designed specifically for machining hardened steels. Built to deliver consistent performance in tough turning applications, it helps shop floors meet tight tolerances with fewer regrindings and tool changes. For best results, pair it with double clamp turning tools or boring bars to minimize vibration and maximize tool life.

• Non-regrindable, single-edge design: Provides a stable, repeatable cutting edge that stays within spec for reliable performance, reducing the need for regrinding and maintenance downtime.
• Eliminates extra grinding inserts: Streamlines your tooling by reducing the number of grinding inserts you must stock and replace, helping lower total tool costs and simplify setup.
• Optimized for low-vibration setups: Works best with double clamp turning tools or boring bars to minimize chatter, delivering smoother cuts and extended insert life in hardened steel workpieces.

Designed for professionals who demand consistent results on hardened steels, this insert supports efficient workflows, steady finishes, and dependable performance across demanding turning operations.
