This work presents the results of (Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb)N superhard coatings research. The samples were fabricated by the vacuum-arc deposition method (Arc-PVD). Structure, composition and properties of these coatings were studied. The study of coatings was carried out using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Hardness measurements and adhesion tests were performed. The coatings thickness was up to 6.2 µm, nanocrystallites sizes ranged from 4 to 7.3 nm. Values of hardness and cohesive strength were H = 43.7 GPa and LC = 62.06 N, respectively. The optimal conditions for coating deposition were found.
