100 Series

Tool 100m050FA

Five-inch cuts in production steel work generate heat. The kind that breaks down edges and leaves you explaining cycle time variances to the floor supervisor. The 100m050FA handles that thermal load through TiAlSiN coating. Aluminum content in the coating acts as a heat sink, pulling temperature away from the cutting edge during heavy roughing passes.

Four flutes keep chip load consistent across the full diameter.
In steel and iron removal operations, that even distribution prevents the hot spots that cause premature wear on one side of the tool.
The R0.1" corner radius eliminates the stress concentration you get with sharp corners, extending edge life in interrupted cuts and allowing higher feed rates in continuous cuts.
Built for the long cuts where smaller tools bog down.
Performs in steel, iron, titanium, and nickel alloys where heat management determines tool life.
