The carbide grade/type determines the tool's hardness, toughness, and resistance to wear. Higher-grade, sub-micrograin carbide provides sharper edges, better durability, and longer life, especially when combined with advanced coatings. For example, the unique carbide grades in Amana Tool 46170-K and Amana Tool 46225-K offer increased tool life and superior finishes in abrasive materials. A variety of carbide types and grades are available across the product line, ensuring you can select a bit with the right balance of hardness and toughness for your specific needs.
