Beyond Shield™ has 3-point, carbide-clad clamp that exhibits wear resistance against chip flow and applies clamping force toward front of insert to reduce vibrations that can lead to cracking/failure. With this rigid clamping system, smaller IC PCBN (polycrystalline cubic boron nitride) inserts can perform well in same applications as larger IC inserts. Available grades include KBK35™ with multi-modal PCBN structure and CVD coating as well as KB1340™ for parts involving aged cast iron.
