Solid carbide tools outperform standard HSS (high-speed steel) tools, therefore allowing the manufacturers to improve productivity while cutting their costs. Their ability to keep sharp cutting edges over long periods minimizes downtime and enhances machining accuracy. Even greater tool life and faster cutting speeds ensure that these enhancements remain doted upon in all high-performance manufacturing environments. The most important advantage of solid carbide tools is that they are incredibly durable. Made from tungsten carbide, the tools are intended for use in extreme cutting conditions where wear and tear would be an issue. Carbide tools, unlike HSS tools, keep their cutting edges for a long time, resulting in relatively infrequent tool replacement and limited downtime.
