From Kennametal's website:
Composition: An advanced multilayer PVD coating over a very deformation-resistant unalloyed carbide substrate. The new and improved coating improves edge stability with wide range speed and feed capabilities. Application: The KCU10™ grade is ideal for fi nishing to general machining of most workpiece materials at a wide range of speed and feed capabilities. Excellent for machining most steels, stainless steels, cast irons, non-ferrous materials, and high-temp alloys with improved edge toughness, notch resistance, and higher cutting speed/feed capability.
