PCD Inserts
There’s no material harder or more wear-resistant than Polycrystalline Diamond (PCD). Incorporating a PCD segment into a cutting insert significantly extends tool life, increases production output, and delivers exceptional performance throughout the tool’s service life.
No matter the material you’re machining, we offer the optimal PCD grade for your application. With more than 10 PCD grades available, O’Reilly partners with Element Six, a leading global supplier of PCD, to ensure you receive the highest quality solution at a competitive price, precisely tailored to your specific requirements.
PCD Inserts Capabilites
Custom inserts, like the one shown above, are engineered for specific applications that require multiple cutting surfaces. Let us design a PCD insert tailored to your exact needs, featuring optimized relief angles, rake geometries, flats, and/or radii, to deliver exceptional machining performance in your specific application.
Round ½-inch inserts, like the one shown here, are used for high-speed turning, surfacing, and boring of non-metallic materials, including aluminum, copper, brass, plastics, fiberglass composites, and more.
Unlike standard carbide tooling, PCD inserts deliver significantly higher-speed finishing performance. Manufactured to precise geometries, PCD inserts offer exceptional abrasion resistance and are engineered to withstand elevated temperatures. The result is superior tool life and a mirror-like surface finish on your parts. Common applications for PCD-tipped inserts include milling, turning, boring, grooving, chamfering, profiling, and more.
