Quick answer
VPOINT TOOL inspects carbide woodworking tools at three stages — raw material, grinding, and final inspection before packing — and warrants its tools against manufacturing defects. Tools that fail due to a material or manufacturing defect are replaced or credited after review; normal wear, chipping from impact and incorrect machine parameters are not covered.
What we check
| Stage | Check |
|---|---|
| Raw material | Carbide grade and hardness verification, PCD blank grade for diamond tools |
| Grinding | Cutting geometry, clearance angles, concentricity, seat flatness for inserts |
| Assembly | Brazing integrity, screw torque on indexable knives, bearing fit |
| Final inspection | Dimensions against drawing (critical seats typically ±0.02 mm), edge condition, marking, packing |
Typical material specification
- Carbide grade: tungsten carbide grades selected for woodworking, hardness typically HRA 89 and above
- PCD tools: polycrystalline diamond tips for abrasive sheet goods (MDF, laminate, chipboard, fibre cement)
- Tolerances: confirmed per drawing; critical insert seats and shank diameters held to tight tolerances
Warranty
- Covers manufacturing defects in material and workmanship.
- Does not cover normal wear, blunt edges from extended use, breakage from incorrect feed/speed, or damage from hitting metal, nails or stone in the workpiece.
- Claim process: send photos or the returned tool plus machine parameters (RPM, feed rate, material, depth of cut). We review and respond with replacement, credit or a technical recommendation.

FAQ
How long should a carbide insert last?
It depends on the material, feed rate and cut depth. Indexable inserts are rotated to a fresh edge rather than resharpened, which is why replaceable insert tooling reduces downtime compared with brazed bits.
Do you provide certificates?
Material and inspection documents can be supplied on request; state your requirement when ordering.
