Maximise productivity and minimise tooling cost with the Hitachi JDMT 100308R-FW JP4020 – a benchmark insert trusted across machining industries.
Geometry & Grade: JDMT series insert with FW chip-breaker style, combined with the high-performance JP4020 grade coating. According to Hitachi’s official insert grade guide, JP4020 is targeted at work-piece hardness up to ~50 HRC, and supports steel, stainless and cast-iron machining with strong wear resistance.
Coating: The JP4020 grade is a PVD-type high-toughness coating developed for continuous cutting conditions including pre-hardened steels.
Applications: Ideal for turning operations of steel, stainless, cast iron, and pre-hardened materials. Also suitable where smooth surface finish and minimal insert downtime are required.
Reduced downtime thanks to high wear-resistance of the JP4020 grade – fewer index changes, longer runs.
Excellent surface finish and dimensional accuracy achieved due to stable edge retention and consistent coating performance.
Lower cost-per-component as insert life extends, and less scrap/rework is needed owing to smoother cutting.
Widely adopted across automotive (shafts, engine components), aerospace (precision turned parts), die & mould (pre-hardened steels, high-tolerance features), and general engineering (shafts, bores, cast-iron components).

The insert is designed for steel, stainless steel, cast iron and pre-hardened materials up to around 50 HRC, thanks to its JP4020 grade coating.
JP4020 is a high-toughness PVD-type coating developed for continuous turning and harder work-piece materials (such as pre-hardened steels). According to Hitachi grade charts, it is positioned for work-hardness groups IV & V (~40-50 HRC) and can be used on stainless steels as well.
Yes. The “FW” chip-breaker in the JDMT 100308R-FW series optimises chip control and edge stability, making it suitable for heavier cuts and stable turning operations, which contributes to longer tool life and better finish.
