Threading tool - surface treatments
TIN (titanium nitride) coating

The TIN surface treatment (titanium-nitride gold-yellow) increases the surface hardness (approx. 2300 HV) and the sliding properties. It provides a better cutting performance and increased tool life time.
VAP (vaporized - steam tempered)

The oxide surface (vaporized) improves the adhesion of the cutting oil and provides a stabil lubricant film. Cold welding in the tap flanks is reduced.
TiAlN (titanium aluminum nitride) coating

The TiAlN surface treatment increases the surface hardness (approx. 3300 HV), the sliding properties (friction coefficient: 0,25) and with high temperature resistance up to 800°C. It provides a better cutting performance and increased tool life time.
TiCN (titanium carbonitride) coating

The TiCN surface treatment (titanium carbon nitride - grey violet) increases the surface hardness (approx. 3000 HV) and the sliding properties (coefficient of friction: 0,3). It provides a better cutting performance and increased tool life time.
