SBN550 & SBN570

Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) cutting tools are highly efficient and versatile tools used in various machining applications. They offer exceptional hardness, thermal stability, and chemical resistance, making them ideal for demanding cutting operations. Haydale is a prominent leader in the manufacturing of world class CBN cutting tools.

Haydale has a notable history as a blend manufacturer, specializing in producing advanced materials for industrial applications. With our expertise in materials science, we have developed the Silar CBN line, which includes grades SBN570 and SBN550, each tailored for specific machining needs.

Silar SBN570 is a high-content CBN grade specifically designed for finishing cast irons and Heat-Resistant Super Alloys (HRSA's). The high CBN content in SBN570 ensures superior cutting performance and extended tool life when dealing with these challenging materials. It can withstand the high temperatures generated during machining, allowing for efficient and precise finishing operations.

On the other hand, Silar SBN550 is a low-content CBN grade optimized for finishing hardened steels and ductile irons. Designed for cost savings, SBN550 delivers exceptional cutting performance and durability. It is particularly effective in applications where hardened steels and ductile irons require precise and smooth surface finishes.

Both SBN570 and SBN550 from Haydale's Silar CBN range offer reliable and high-quality cutting solutions. They provide excellent wear resistance, reducing the need for frequent tool replacements and increasing productivity. Moreover, their exceptional thermal stability ensures consistent performance even under extreme machining conditions.

By combining our expertise in blend manufacturing with the development of Silar CBN grades like SBN570 and SBN550, Haydale has established itself as a trusted provider of advanced CBN cutting tools. These tools enable manufacturers to achieve superior results in finishing cast irons, HRSA's, hardened steels, and ductile irons, contributing to enhanced machining efficiency and overall productivity.
