The Vortex VCGW160408-CBN30 is a non-regrindable, single-edge turning insert built for machining hardened steels. With a CBN composition, it delivers exceptional wear resistance and dependable performance on tough materials, helping you complete demanding turning tasks with fewer insert changes.

This insert can eliminate the need for additional grinding inserts, simplifying setup and inventory. For best results with CBN turning inserts, pair with double clamp turning tools or boring bars to minimize vibration and extend tool life.

• Non-regrindable, single-edge geometry: Keeps edge geometry consistent and reduces rework, delivering reliable cuts without the need for frequent re-sharpening.
• CBN material for hardened steels: Delivers superior wear resistance and stable performance in tough alloys, reducing tool changes and improving uptime.
• Optimized for vibration control: Designed to perform best when used with double clamp tools or boring bars, helping minimize chatter and extend insert life.

This insert supports a smoother, more predictable turning process on hardened steels, helping you finish parts with consistent quality while lowering overall tooling costs. By combining durable, long-lasting edges with a straightforward setup, it enhances workflow efficiency and reliability across demanding applications.
