Tool Coatings That Go the Distance

At Scientific Cutting Tools, we offer advanced tool coatings designed to maximize performance, durability, and value. Our proprietary AlTiN+ coating is a custom-engineered NaCo blend that delivers exceptional wear resistance, extended tool life, and higher cutting speeds - especially in tough materials. We also offer ZrCN coating, ideal for non-ferrous applications required a low-friction aesthetically appealing finish, and TaC coating, a diamond-like tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) layer that delivers unmatched hardness and thermal stability.

We also offer TiN coating, a once-standard gold finish still used in certain general-purpose applications, though it has largely been surpassed by more advanced technologies like AlTiN+ and ZrCN.
