Tool 120i156LFA
Tight radii and intricate contours in hardened steels test the limits of tool life and surface finish.
- Ball nose geometry at 0.1563" cutting diameter follows contoured surfaces without leaving flat-bottomed transitions.
- The rounded tip produces smooth transitions on contoured surfaces and mold profiles.
- Three flutes balance chip clearance with cutting engagement on curved geometry.
- TiAlSiN coating extends tool life in harder materials by reducing heat buildup and providing thermal barrier protection at elevated cutting temperatures.
- At 0.1563" cutting diameter, this end mill handles detail work in die cavities and precision molds where larger tools cannot reach.
- The coating maintains sharp edge retention during interrupted cuts common in 3D profiling operations.
