Product Details • Product Name: PCD Standard Insert – CP Type • Geometry / Shape: 80° rhombic (ISO CP style) • Clearance (Relief) Angle: 11° (positive rake) • Cutting Edge: Polycrystalline Diamond (PCD) tipped • Common Sizes:CP..0602, CP..0903, CP..1204 (custom sizes on request) • Edge Prep: Sharp or micro-honed depending on application • Compatible Holders: Standard ISO CP-type turning tool holders • Typical PCD Grades: 1300/1500 or equivalent Description The PCD Standard Insert CP Type is an 80° positive-rake insert with an 11° clearance angle designed for high-precision turning, profiling, and finishing of non-ferrous and abrasive materials. Its positive geometry reduces cutting forces, while the PCD-tipped edge delivers outstanding hardness and wear resistance. The CP type excels in automotive, aerospace, and electronics machining, especially where superior surface finish and long tool life are critical.

Features & Benefits
Based on 2 reviews
I’ve been using this product for several months now, and it stands out as one of the best tools for customization in manufacturing. Whether you're working with metal, plastic, or composites, this tool adapts easily to different workflows and materials. Highly recommended for teams looking for precision, efficiency, and customization all in one.
Q1. Which materials are ideal for
CP-type PCD inserts?
A: Non-ferrous metals (aluminum, copper, brass, magnesium), carbon-fiber
composites, high-silicon alloys, and graphite.
Q2. Can these inserts cut hardened
steel?
A: No. PCD reacts with iron at high temperature. Use PCBN inserts for ferrous
or hardened steels.
Q3. What cutting speeds are
recommended?
A: Generally 800–3,000 m/min for aluminum; adjust for machine rigidity and
workpiece material.
Q4. Is coolant required?
A: Not necessary. Dry machining works well; a light mist or air blast aids chip
evacuation.
Q5. How does tool life compare with
carbide inserts?
A: Typically 5–10 times longer, depending on operating conditions.
Q6. Can these inserts be
re-sharpened or re-tipped?
A: Yes, specialized PCD service centers can regrind or re-tip the cutting edge.
Q7. What feed rates work best?
A: For finishing, 0.05–0.25 mm/rev; higher feeds are possible for softer
non-ferrous materials.
Q8. Are special tool holders
required?
A: No, they fit standard ISO CP-style holders.
Q9. How should the inserts be
stored?
A: In protective cases, in a dry, vibration-free environment to avoid chipping.
Q10. Are they suitable for abrasive
composites like CFRP or GFRP?
A: Yes, PCD is excellent for carbon- and glass-fiber composites, minimizing
delamination and tool wear.
