MENLO Tools - High-Performance Coatings

Whether you need to boost the productivity of general-purpose tools at higher speeds and feeds, or extend tool life in applications generating high temperatures, MENLO has the right coating for the job.

TiAlN-X (Titanium Aluminum Nitride)

A thicker PVDS coating designed for the most demanding dry, hard-metal milling applications.
Offered on end mills with geometries best suited for the machining demands of hardened steels and high-temperature alloys.

AlTiN-X (Aluminum Titanium Nitride)

A hard-based PVD used to increase tool performance in abrasive and difficult-to-machine materials. Offered on end mills best suited for machining stainless steels, carbon steels, alloy steels, titanium and cast iron.

TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride)

A general-purpose tool coating for increasing tool productivity with higher feeds and speeds. Considered supplemental and offered as an option when AlTiN cannot be used, as in applications that cannot generate speeds and feeds required for high cutting temperatures.

TiN (Titanium Nitride)

Improves tool life by acting as a thermal and chemical barrier between tool and workpiece. Considered supplemental; generally used only in applications with very low cutting rates.

MENLO Tools

Every MENLO tool is designed for maximum performance and tested to prove it.

The result: premium performance in every respect, from maximum metal removal to exceptional surface finish and unsurpassed tool life.
