Tool 100i156M015A

Most shops know the feeling. You dial in a small end mill, run a few parts, then watch the edge condition drift part to part. The 100i156M015A addresses this with geometry designed for consistency over flash.

Four flutes spread chip load evenly during profiling and slotting in steel and iron.
That distribution keeps cutting forces balanced, which translates to stable tool deflection and predictable surface finish across longer production runs.
The TiAlSiN coating adds wear resistance without building up heat at the cutting edge.
Particularly useful when working titanium and nickel alloys where thermal management matters.
The R0.015" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge while maintaining reasonable corner definition for most applications.
Edge strength means fewer micro-chipping events that lead to premature tool failure.
