Tool 120m030LFA
Heavy roughing cuts in hardened steels generate heat that breaks down cutting edges before the job is done.
- Ball nose geometry at 3" 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.
- This 3" diameter cutter carries TiAlSiN coating to maintain edge integrity during extended cuts in work-hardened materials.
- The aluminum content in the coating forms a protective oxide layer at elevated temperatures, extending tool life in demanding applications.
- The coating also reduces built-up edge formation when machining sticky alloys like titanium and nickel-based superalloys.
