BALINIT B coated for hob
BALINIT B coated for extrusion punch
Taps that are more resilient thanks to BALINIT® B
Optimum results assured by careful handling.
Metal Forming

BALINIT® B coated tools are characterized by very high hardness and good toughness. This coating is especially wear resistant and its low coefficient of friction provides tools with effective protection against cold-welding. BALINIT® B is moreover food-safe.

The proven TiCN-coating displays its special strengths in tapping and thread forming, high load punching and metal forming applications.

  • Very high hardness
  • Good toughness

General remark All given data are approximate values, they depend on application, environment and test condition.
*Coating hardness HIT [GPa] Measured by nano indentation according to ISO 14577. For multilayers the hardness of the different layers varies. Hardness can be adapted to the application.
***Intrinsic stress [GPa] Measured by XRD and/or bending method (Stoney equation). The calculated thermal stress has been substracted.
****Max. service temp. [°C] These are approximate values out of the field. Due to thermodynamic laws there is a dependency of pressure in application.
