Tool 120m030FA
Large diameter ball nose work on hardened steels creates heat that destroys uncoated tools.
- Ball nose geometry at 3" cutting diameter follows contoured surfaces without leaving flat-bottomed transitions.
- The TiAlSiN coating on this 3-inch diameter cutter provides thermal barrier protection during heavy profiling cuts in tough materials.
- The aluminum content in the coating maintains hardness at elevated temperatures while the silicon increases oxidation resistance.
- Three flutes distribute cutting forces across the large diameter while maintaining adequate chip evacuation space.
- The rounded tip produces smooth transitions on contoured surfaces and mold profiles where surface finish requirements are critical.
