1" OD x 1" Shank OD x 1" LOC x 3-1/2" OAL 3-Flute Single End Cobalt High-Speed Steel (HSS) Aluminum Roughing End Mill, 40° Helix, Center Cut, Square End, Stub Length, TiAlN Hard Coat.
This 3-flute cobalt high-speed steel roughing end mill combines HSS toughness with improved hot hardness for demanding material-removal applications. The aluminum roughing geometry is designed for productive stock removal in aluminum and other suitable non-ferrous alloys, with flute space intended to support chip evacuation. The center-cutting geometry also supports controlled axial entry, ramping, and pocketing when appropriate for the workpiece and setup.
The TiAlN Hard Coat is intended for improved heat and wear resistance in demanding roughing applications.
