It seems that the TIN coating (Titanium Nitrite) allows one to increase the feed rate by as much as 50%, over carbide bits.

I ran a google search, and I found this coating on:
dental implants, fishing rods, motorcycle parts, knife blades, guns parts, and of course drilling bits. It's easily recognized as it looks like a gold coating.
