Our Coatings
CoreHog's top-shelp coating options, including PCD, CVD, DLC, and others, are each specifically formulated to ensure your tool is fully equipped to manufacture composite materials more efficiently and accurately, providing you the best performance possible in your next CNC composite cutting application.
DLC
Diamond-Like Coating
has extremely sharp
edges, improving
lubricity and wear
resistance in low
temperature threshold
applications of non-
ferrous materials.
Max. Working Temp
600° F
Microhardness (HV 0.05)
2,400 (24 GPa)
Coefficient of Friction
.05 - .1
Coating Thickness
1 - 4 μm
Structure
Mono-Layer
Color
Black
CVD
True Crystalline
Diamond coating
is grown directly
onto a cutting tool,
dramatically improving
hardness, abrasion
resistance, and feed
rates in non-ferrous
machining applications.
Max. Working Temp
1,100° F
Microhardness (HV 0.05)
8,157-10,200 (80 - 100 GPa)
Coefficient of Friction
.05 - .30
Coating Thickness
4 μm Thinner CVD diamond layer provides a balance between wear resistance and edge sharpness.
12 μm Thicker diamond layer for increased wear resistance.
Structure
True Crystalline CVD Multi-Layer
Color
Gray
PCD
Thick diamond layer
brazed onto solid
carbide body provides
outstanding micro
hardness and abrasion
resistance in low
temperature threshold
applications of non-
ferrous materials
