About Us
Welcome to Performance CBN! We are bringing our 30+ years of experience of providing cutting tools and abrasives to the automotive and aerospace industries to the engine machine shop. With that experience, and with our contacts, we've engineered an offering of the highest quality ultra hard cutting tools. We extensively test our tools prior to bringing them to the market place.
​
We will continue to develop cutting tools that satisfy the market need. In the spring of 2023 we plan to offer carbide reamers for bronze valve guides - a wider offering of O-RING tools - solid carbide end mills and drills.

If you have a requirement for a special tool, we would be glad to see if we can build it for you. Let us help supply your shop tooling needs.
