Pros
Reliable performance due to carbide tipped material
Based on my observations these carbide tipped brazed tools have exceeded my expectations .The cutting edges are incredibly sharp and have lasted much longer than other tools I've used in the past. The precision offered by these tools is unmatched and has significantly increased my productivity. HOWEVER, the upfront cost is slightly higher than some others on the market. Overall, I would highly recommend American Carbide Tool`s Carbide Tipped C5 brazed tools for any cutting needs..
These carbide tipped turning tools are indispensable when you need to remove a lot of metal in a short time. They also take some powerful turns without much fuss or fuss. I don't have a cooling system on my machines but if they did I think these bits would actually make great chips!
