Abstract

See full text

A hard coating layer on a cutting tool includes at least a Ti and Al complex nitride or carbonitride layer and has an average layer thickness of 1 to 20 μm. In a case where a composition of the complex nitride or carbonitride layer is expressed by: (Ti1-xAlx)(CyN1-y), a content ratio x and a content ratio y satisfy 0.60≦x≦0.95 and 0≦y≦0.005, where x and y are in atomic ratio. Crystal grains constituting the complex nitride or carbonitride layer include cubic phase crystal grains and hexagonal phase crystal grains. An area ratio occupied by the cubic phase crystal grains is 30-80%. An average grain width W is 0.05-1.0 μm. An average aspect ratio A of the crystal grains with the cubic grain structure is 5 or less. A periodic content ratio change of Ti and Al in (Ti1-xAlx)(CyN1-y) exists in each of the cubic phase crystal grains.
