What Is Relationship Between Hardness of Carbide And The Life of Carbide Tools?

The hardness of carbide is closely related to the life of carbide tools.

The higher the hardness of a carbide tool, the greater its wear and impact resistance, which can extend the service life of the tool.

Generally speaking, the hardness of carbide cutting tools is usually between 60 and 70HRC, while the hardness of the workpiece material is usually between 20 and 40HRC. This means that the hardness of the carbide tool is higher than the hardness of the workpiece material, which allows the carbide tool to cut and process the workpiece better while reducing wear and grinding times, thereby extending the service life of the tool.

In addition, the life of carbide cutting tools is also affected by other factors, such as material selection, tool shape, cutting conditions and cutting materials. Therefore, in the process of using carbide cutting tools, the cutting tool materials and processes must be reasonably selected, and the cutting tools must be used and maintained rationally to achieve a longer service life.
