100 Series

Tool 100i500L030A

Heat buildup changes everything in a cut. Surface finish degrades, tool life drops, and dimensional accuracy starts to drift. The 100i Series addresses this with TiAlSiN coating that maintains lubricity at higher cutting temperatures while the four-flute geometry keeps chip load predictable.

That R0.03" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without sacrificing sharpness.
In steel and iron, it prevents micro-chipping that leads to premature wear.
The radius also improves surface finish in side milling operations where edge contact varies throughout the cut.
Four flutes mean each cutting edge sees consistent engagement in slotting and profiling work.
The TiAlSiN coating extends tool life in titanium and nickel alloys where heat generation typically shortens run times.
Together, they deliver the kind of predictable performance that keeps setup time low and scrap rates lower.
