100C Series

Tool 100Ci625A

Long cuts in steel generate heat. The 100Ci625A addresses this with chipbreaker geometry that fractures chips before they can pack flutes or conduct heat back to the cutting edge.

Four flutes balance surface finish with feed rates in steel, iron, titanium, and nickel alloys.
The chipbreaker interrupts chip formation along each cutting edge, creating smaller fragments that evacuate more readily than continuous ribbons.
In deeper slots and extended passes, chip evacuation is what keeps the cut running.
TiAlSiN coating adds thermal barrier properties while maintaining lubricity at higher cutting speeds.
The R0.008" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without compromising sharpness, extending tool life in interrupted cuts and harder grades.
