Tool 100i625M060A

Most shops know the drill: sharp corners cut clean, but they don't last. The rounded corner on this 0.625" end mill gives you both. That R0.06" radius distributes cutting forces over more carbide, reducing stress concentration at the corner where most failures start.

TiAlSiN coating handles the heat buildup that comes with extended runs in steel and titanium.
The aluminum content forms a protective oxide layer at cutting temperatures, keeping the substrate cooler while the silicon increases hardness.
Four flutes maintain consistent chip load distribution across profiling in steel and slotting through nickel alloys.
The corner radius also means less work hardening on difficult materials.
Instead of a sharp edge that can grab and tear, you get controlled material removal that leaves a better surface finish.
