TiCN COATING:
Titanium CarboNitride or Carbo-Nitride (TiCN) is a thin film coating that was developed from Titanium Nitride. TiCN offers slightly higher hardness compared to TiN and can show a slightly lower friction coefficient in many applications. It is primarily used to achieve enhanced abrasive wear resistance. TiCN has a lower temperature limit for service temperature.TiCN has below properties:
• Better abrasive wear resistance than TiN.
• Lower high temperature tolerance than TiN.
• Eliminates galling, fretting, microwelding, seizing and adhesive wear
• Smooth operation of moving components
• Wear resistance on precision components
• Holds sharp edges or corners
• Erosion resistance
• Low Friction
• Little dimensional impact, perfect for close tolerance parts

Application:
Successful applications include end mills, reamers, drills, taps, hobs, and carbide inserts. It performs well cutting alloy steels and stainless steels and is used to protect punches, trim dies and blanking dies.
