100 Series

Tool 100i500Z030A

Most shops know the feeling. You dial in a cut that runs clean for the first dozen parts, then something shifts. Edge wear accelerates, surface finish degrades, and suddenly you're babysitting what should be a lights-out operation.

The 100 Series 4-flute distributes cutting forces across four edges instead of concentrating them on two or three.
That distribution matters most in interrupted cuts and variable depth operations where uneven loading typically kills consistency.
The TiAlSiN coating adds a thermal barrier that keeps the cutting edge stable when heat spikes during heavy cuts in steel and titanium.
The R0.03" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without sacrificing sharpness.
Sharp enough for clean entry, strong enough to maintain geometry through extended runs in iron and nickel alloys.
