Over the last year, the price of tungsten (ammonium paratungstate or APT) has surged to record levels. From 2024 to 2025, prices rose approximately 40% - 80%. Then, from 2025 to 2026, the estimated increase was as high as an additional 120% - 200%. As a result, the cost of new tools has skyrocketed, creating an economic burden on shops of all sizes.
Guhring’s reconditioning services offer you a precise, strategic solution to soaring tool prices. They provide true factory-quality reconditioning by utilizing the same high-precision CNC grinding machines, advanced PVD coating systems, and strict process controls used in the production of new Guhring tools. This approach ensures that every reconditioned tool is restored to its original geometry, coating, and performance, delivering the same reliability you expect from a new tool; not a compromise.
Genuine Factory Quality
All tools are processed in Guhring‑owned and operated facilities, not third‑party “authorized” shops.
Reconditioning is performed on Guhring-engineered CNC grinding equipment to restore original tool geometry and cutting performance.
Every tool is assigned a unique, traceable job number to ensure full process visibility and quality control from start to finish.
In‑House PVD Coatings
Every tool is properly cleaned, prepared, and recoated using state‑of‑the‑art PVD coating chambers.
Tools receive authentic Guhring proprietary coatings—FIREX®/nano‑FIREX®, nano‑A®, Perrox®, etc. — not aftermarket substitutes.
In-house coating provides faster turnaround times, minimizes handling risk, and ensures consistent, high-quality results.
Precision Honing for High‑Performance Tools
Controlled, repeatable honing ensures consistent performance across multiple regrinds.
Strict process controls maintain edge prep integrity—critical for high‑performance carbide drills.
Tool Types Guhring Reconditions
Guhring and competitor carbide drills, end mills, step drills, reamers, and PCD tooling (re-tipping).
Most competitor geometries can be duplicated on request.
Shipping Made Easy
Tools ship in protective Guhring tote boxes; free totes available upon request.
Pick‑up and delivery service available in select regions; otherwise ship UPS 2-day delivery at ground rates.
