OLD GRADE NOTICE!
IC908 is an older generation grade that is no longer recomended by Iscar
The recomended modern alternative is :IC808
The data below is the data for IC808 However, It should be fairly accurate also for IC908
From Iscar's website:
A hard, submicron substrate with excellent chipping resistance, combined with a "SUMO TEC" TiAlN PVD coating. Provides high wear resistance. Recommended for a very wide range of materials.
