This is multiface PVD Coating with a 2,5 µm thickness.,which Obtained from a Titanium/Carbon plasma which gives to it the high hardness of 3000-3200HV.
The friction coefficient (0,2) is very low, thanks mainly to the strong presence of Carbon; this characteristic makes it very suited for applications where the materials to be cut are very rough, such as inox or medium-alloyed steels with hardnesses up to 800 N/mm².
TiCN coating cold saw blades are used most commonly for cutting stainless steel.
