CARBATEC CYROGENIC M2 HSS16MM BOWL GOUGE CT-WTC-BG-16

Building on the success and extremely positive feedback for our Carbatec Cryogenic Woodturning Sets, we are pleased to offer you an expanded capacity lineup of individual chisels! Featuring the same high quality Cryogenic M2 HSS, with 63-65 Rockwell lasting 2-3x longer than regular M2 HSS, these chisels offer a way to expand your turning capacity.

Cryogenic treatment of M2 HSS means this steel has been subjected to a complex immersion procedure at temperatures as low as minus 195degC. Sounds fancy (and cold!) but what does this mean? This treatment actually changes the structure of the steel, producing an ultra-fine and hard martensitic structure, supported by fine carbides.

The result - Additional wear resistance and edge holding capability of approximately 2 to 3 times that of regular M2 HSS !! Now that's an impressive edge!

We listened to turners needs and requests to develop and release these new individual tools. This new range feature a number of larger tools for heavier or bigger projects, along with a few more specialised tools not found in our sets.*
