Abstract
Abstract A cemented carbide article or part having a hard coating excellent in heat shielding effect and initial wear resistance is described in which the hard coating comprises an inner layer of TiC and an outer layer of TiC, and an intermediate layer, provided between the inner layer and outer layer, consisting of at least one layer selected from the group consiting of a single layer of TiN and a composite layer with such a structure that a TiN layer is sandwiched in between TiCN layers.
