PRNewswire November 2, 2023

PITTSBURGH, Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Kennametal Inc. (NYSE: KMT) announced today its new FV Geometry, featuring an innovative chip breaker design that allows for a more stable, sharper cutting edge for improved surface roughness and chip formation.

Developed to cut on a wider application range with consistency and featuring a unique chip breaker design, sharper edge and built-in coolant channels.
