- Micro-Porous Internal Structure: Increases specific surface area for stronger bonding and stable cutting behavior.
- Enhanced Self-Sharpening Capability: Controlled micro-breakage continuously exposes fresh cutting edges.
- Improved Chip Clearance and Cooling: Internal voids promote debris removal and coolant flow, reducing heat buildup.
- Low Surface Damage: Supports cleaner finishes with reduced scratch depth on brittle materials.
- Wear Resistance with Controlled Friability: Balances long tool life with sustained sharpness.
- Tightly Graded and Customizable: Particle size and porosity can be tailored for predictable performance.
