100C Series

Tool 100Cm040LA

Heavy cuts in steel generate heat that kills tools fast. The 100Cm040LA addresses this with chipbreaker geometry that fractures chips before they can pack the flutes or conduct heat back to the cutting edge.

TiAlSiN coating adds thermal barrier protection at temperatures where uncoated carbide starts to soften.
The aluminum content in this coating forms a protective oxide layer during cutting, extending tool life in steel, iron, titanium, and nickel alloys where heat buildup is inevitable.
Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in the 4-inch cutting diameter.
The R0.1" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge compared to sharp corners while maintaining clean entry into the workpiece.
This combination handles interrupted cuts and varying depths without premature edge failure.
