ISO S — Superalloys & Titanium · S01

S01 — Titanium (commercially pure)

Hardness range: ~200 HB · 30 HRC. Part of the ISO S — Superalloys & Titanium group. Superalloys and titanium are the most challenging ISO group: low thermal conductivity concentrates heat at the cutting edge, and high strength persists at elevated temperatures. High-pressure coolant (70–100 bar) is mandatory. Low Vc, consistent DOC, and sharp geometry are non-negotiable. Tool life is short — plan changeovers.
