Where each table places it

Kyocera (2021)K20 · M30 · P30
Mitsubishi (2025-27)K20 · M20 · M30 · M40 · P30
Tungaloy (2023-24)M30 · P10 · P20

The tables disagree: Mitsubishi (2025-27), Kyocera (2021) also list it for K (cast iron); the other table does not.

Note: table built by cross-checking the comparison tables published by Mitsubishi Materials (2025-2027 catalogue), Tungaloy (2023-2024) and Kyocera (2021). Each maker states its table is an estimate based on publications, not approved by the companies named; this one is not approved by them either. Equivalences are indicative: substrate, coating and geometry differ between brands. The catalogue of the grade you use is what counts. Grade names and trademarks belong to their owners.
