According to the company, the new VRX multipurpose thread turning grade from Vardex is a step forward for them.
“The launch of the new VRX grade marks a significant step forward in our market position as a leading provider of advanced threading solutions. We invested extensive resources in the technological development of VRX in
response to calls from our customers for a high performance threading grade suitable for a wide range of materials and cutting conditions,” said Harry Ehrenberg, President, Vargus Ltd.
Suitable for machining steel, hardened steel up to 55 HRc, stainless steel, high temperature alloys and non-ferrous metals at low and high cutting speeds, VRX grade inserts are available in sizes IC 3/8” and IC 1/4” and suitable for all standard thread turning profiles. In the future, the VRX grade will be extended to additional sizes and products throughout the Vardex line.

The new VRX grade outperforms our leading competitors regardless of the cutting material or conditions. We look forward to continuing this trend in the future with an ever growing stream of new product solutions in 2015 and beyond,” added David Wolfe, VP Sales & Marketing, Vargus Ltd.
