Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN)

Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) offers excellent thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and wear protection, making it ideal for high-speed and dry machining applications. The aluminum content helps form a protective aluminum oxide layer during use, which shields the tool from heat and extends its service life.
