2-1/2" OD x 2" Shank OD x 10" LOC x 13-5/8" OAL 8-Flute Single End HSS Roughing End Mill 30° Helix Non-Center Cut Extra-Long Length Square End TiN-V Coating.
This 8-flute high-speed steel roughing end mill uses chip-breaking cutting edges to reduce cutting pressure and support efficient stock removal. The extra-long length construction and 30° helix are suited to roughing slots, pockets, shoulders, and profiles while promoting manageable chips. Its non-center-cutting geometry is intended for side milling and requires an existing entry path for axial engagement.
High-speed steel provides toughness and resistance to chipping for general machining, repair work, interrupted cuts, and setups that benefit from a more forgiving cutting edge than carbide.
The TiN-V coating provides a hard, low-friction surface for general rough-milling applications.
