Cemented carbides are a class of hard materials used extensively for cutting tools, as well as in other industrial applications. It consists of fine particles of carbide cemented into a composite by a binder metal. Cemented carbides commonly use tungsten carbide (WC), titanium carbide (TiC), or tantalum carbide (TaC) as the aggregate. Mentions of "carbide" or "tungsten carbide" in industrial contexts usually refer to these cemented composites. The cobalt content could vary from 5% to 23% base on application. 8% to 12% are the most common for cutting tools. Ruthenium is used to replace cobalt as a perfered binder for the best cutting performance.

A fine-grained alumina layer gives better wear resistance by improving coating integrity at elevated speeds. Proprietary post-coat treatment of the WK15CM inserts further increase cutting-edge toughness by improved coating stress. This helps fight thermal cracking and coating flaking, the number-one reason most milling inserts fail in machining cast irons, especially when coolant is applied. Cutting edges are further micro-polished to ease cutting forces and reduce friction and workpiece sticking. The results are an extremely reliable milling insert shops can use to make more cast iron parts or to ramp up cutting speeds when increased performance is called for.
