HardTurn 80° is the Denitool boring bar family for internal turning (boring) of hardened materials up to 62 HRC. All bars are 95° SCLP style (tool cutting edge angle 95°) with a solid carbide shank and internal coolant channel, and they take the screw-clamped 80° rhombic insert size CP 05T1 (inch: CP 1.81.x). Four shank diameters (8, 10, 12 and 16 mm) cover bores from ⌀ 8.7 mm (.343") upward, each in right-hand and left-hand versions. The cylindrical shanks (tolerance h6, with a clamping flat) are clamped in standard boring bar holders.

Denitool is made by DENI AG (Veltheim, Switzerland) and its subsidiary Denitool Inc. (Raleigh NC, inch program).

## Key facts

- Workpiece: hardened materials up to 62 HRC (ISO material group H).
- Recommended insert grade (page statement): DS10 for steels up to 0.8 % carbon content. For steels with higher carbon content, the grades page lists DS20 as the high-end hard-turning grade (see https://www.denitool.com/md/en/insert-grades.md).
- Bar body: fully hardened carbide shank, coolant through the bar. The page states that the bars are stable, long-lasting and completely hard thanks to Denitool's patented manufacturing techniques.

## Terms used on this page

- **KAPR**: tool cutting edge angle (95° = the bar can face and turn up to a shoulder).
- **DMIN**: minimum bore diameter the bar can enter.
- **CLMBD**: maximum cutting (boring) depth at minimum bore diameter.
- **DCON**: shank (connection) diameter.
- **LF**: functional length (overall length of the bar).
- **WF**: functional width, the distance from the shank axis to the cutting corner.
- **H**: shank height across the clamping flat.
- **Designation** (e.g. E08H SCLPR-05): E = carbide shank with coolant hole, 08 = shank ⌀ 8 mm, H = length 100 mm, S = screw clamping, C = 80° rhombic insert, L = 95° tool cutting edge angle, P = 11° insert clearance, R/L = right/left hand, 05 = cutting edge length 5 mm (CP 05T1).

- **Insert size CP 05T1**: C = 80° rhombus, P = 11° clearance, 05 = 5 mm edge length, T1 = insert thickness 1.98 mm (.078"). Full key: https://www.denitool.com/md/en/insert-designation.md

## Inserts for hard turning

The DS10 and DS20 hard-turning grades are offered in the CP 05T1 size with the FN-20 chip breaker, mainly in tolerance class E (CPET):

| Insert | Grades | Corner radius |
|---|---|---|
| CPET 05T101 FN-20 | DS10, DS20 | 0.1 mm |
| CPET 05T102 FN-20 | DS10, DS20 | 0.2 mm |
| CPET 05T104 FN-20 | DS10, DS20 | 0.4 mm |
| CPGT 05T104 FN-20 | DS10 (CH shop) | 0.4 mm |

CP 05T1 inserts with CBN tips (CPGW 05T102 CBN, CPGW 05T104 CBN) are also listed in the shops. Not every insert is listed in both shops; check the Store API. Insert overview for this size: https://www.denitool.com/en/indexable-inserts/i/cp-05t1-cp-1-81-2.html
