PITTSBURGH, Oct. 18,
2023 /CNW/ -- Kennametal Inc. (NYSE: KMT)
announced today its new KCU10B turning grade, an innovative update
to its KCU10 platform with an enhanced KENGold™ coating technology
for edge protection. This universal cutting solution is designed
for machinists in aerospace and defense, automotive, energy and
general engineering markets requiring maximum output when cutting a
broad range of difficult-to-machine materials.
"We engineered this new turning solution to excel in finishing
applications across industries," said Scott
Etling, Vice President of Marketing, Global Product
Management. "Designed with our multilayer, nanostructure PVD
coating technology, KCU10B supports machining with higher quality,
