Syndite

Syndite is a composite material which combines the hardness, abrasion resistance and thermal conductivity of diamond with the toughness of tungsten carbide.

Applications

cutting tools for machining
a wide variety of abrasive materials
wear part applications
Advantages
improved life of the tool, or wear part
improved process reliability
improved frictional behaviour
Grades

Syndite is produced in five standard grades:

CTB002
CTC 002
CTB010
CTB025
CTH 025

The numbers refer to the average dimensions in micrometres of the starting diamond material. The designation CTB indicates standard Polycrystalline diamond products, whereas CTC and CTH indicate modified PCD grades. Syndite CTB010 may, in most cases, be regarded as the general-purpose grade.
