Tool 100i313L030A

Tight tolerances on smaller features require tools that won't drift or deflect mid-cut. The 100i313L030A holds its line in steel, iron, titanium, and nickel alloys because four flutes mean the cutting forces stay balanced even when spindle speeds climb.

TiAlSiN coating handles the heat buildup that comes with smaller diameter tooling running at higher surface speeds.
The coating's aluminum content forms a protective oxide layer during cutting, keeping the substrate sharp longer in interrupted cuts and heavy feeds.
That's particularly useful in steel work where thermal cycling can chip uncoated edges.
The 0.03" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without sacrificing corner definition.
Stronger edges mean less microchipping in harder materials like D2 or H13, which translates to better surface finish consistency across longer production runs.
