Abstract
A surface-coated cutting tool includes: a tool body made of any one of tungsten carbide-based cemented carbide, TiCN-based cermet, a cubic boron nitride sintered material, and high-speed tool steel; and a hard coating layer provided on a surface of the tool body. The hard coating layer includes at least a complex nitride layer of Al, Cr, Si, and Cu with an average layer thickness of 0.5 to 8.0 μm. The complex nitride layer of (AlCrSiCu)N satisfies 0.15≤a≤0.40, 0.05≤b≤0.20, and 0.005≤c≤0.05 (here, each of a, b, and c is in atomic ratio). The complex nitride layer has a hexagonal crystal structure. A half width of a diffraction peak of a (110) plane present in a range of 2θ=55° to 65° by performing X-ray diffraction on the complex nitride layer is 1.0° to 3.5°.
