Pentahedron carbide

Pentahedral carbide inserts ("five-faced") are among the constantly in demand by Ukrainian enterprises. Pyatihedron has been produced for decades by Russian and Ukrainian tool factories and workshops, today the five-hedron is “baked” mainly in Russia, while the hard alloy (VK-8, T5K10, T15K6) has a coarse-grained structure (tens of microns), while today a hard alloy with a fine-grained structure is in demand (units of microns). European and Asian tool factories do not bake finely dispersed pentahedron, since this standard size is not used abroad, it is not included in manufacturers' catalogs.

Kharkov MICROTECH ^® since 2006 has been producing in the ISO 9001:2000 quality system (in its own forms, abroad) highly resistant pentagonal plates from fine (micron) hard alloys (VK-8, T5K10, T15K6). Pentahedral carbide inserts MICROTECH ^® , due to the fine-grained dense structure, have improved mechanical characteristics, are well ground and polished to an improved roughness, steadily hold the cutting edge and the specified geometry.

Producers of the Kharkiv State Enterprise "Plant FED", using the Kharkov five-sided MICROTECH ^® , increased the service life by 2.5-4 times.
