Whether you need custom brazed carbide tool bits, specialty form tools, or long-lasting cutters for tough materials, our experienced team delivers precision and quality with every tool we build.

What Is Brazed Carbide Tooling?

Brazed carbide tools combine a steel body with a precision-bonded carbide tip. This design offers the strength and flexibility of steel with the cutting power and wear resistance of carbide—making them ideal for machining hardened materials, high-production environments, and applications where solid carbide tools may not be cost-effective.

Common uses for brazed carbide tooling include:

  • Turning and facing operations

  • Grooving and threading

  • Milling and slotting

  • Form cutting and profiling

  • General-purpose machining on ferrous and non-ferrous metals

Brazed carbide tools are a trusted choice in demanding manufacturing operations thanks to their strength, edge retention, and regrindability.

Custom Carbide-Tipped Tooling Solutions

At Contour Tool & Machine, we fabricate a wide range of carbide-tipped tooling built to your specifications. Our team works with engineers, machinists, and tool designers to develop tools that match exact form, function, and material requirements.

We manufacture:

  • Brazed carbide form tools

  • Special cutters for unique geometries

  • ID/OD grooving tools

  • Chamfering and facing tools

  • Combination cutting tools

Each tool is designed for maximum performance in your application—whether that means achieving tight tolerances, extending tool life, or improving surface finish.

Precision Brazing and Grinding Capabilities

Our in-house capabilities include high-precision brazing and post-braze grinding to ensure tool accuracy and balance. We take extra care during brazing to guarantee strong, void-free bonds between the carbide tip and the steel body—critical for tool longevity and safe operation.

After brazing, every tool is carefully ground using advanced manual and CNC grinding equipment to achieve:

  • Exact cutting geometries

  • Consistent relief angles

  • Optimal edge sharpness

  • Smooth surface finishes

Whether you need a brand-new brazed carbide tool bit or a regrind of an existing tool, our team delivers results that meet the highest standards of precision and durability.
