ISO Carbide Inserts
Great Lakes Carbide Supply delivers a full spectrum of ISO carbide inserts engineered for production environments that demand precision, repeatability, and uptime. From turning and milling to threading and holemaking, our catalog is built around performance — not promises.
The Language of ISO Tooling
ISO standards unify the global machining world. They help ensure that a tool ordered in Canada fits a holder in Germany and cuts steel in Texas.
We supply ISO-compliant tooling across all major disciplines:
- Turning inserts (CNMG, DNMG, TNMG, VNMG, SNMG, etc.)
- Milling inserts & cutters
- Threading inserts
- Grooving & parting systems
- Drilling & holemaking tools
- Toolholders & modular systems
