Tool 150i500L030A

Heat buildup kills surface finish in steel and titanium. The 150i625M006A addresses this through reduced chip load distribution.

Five flutes spread the cutting load across more edges, letting you maintain higher feed rates without overloading individual teeth.
The TiAlSiN coating adds thermal barrier properties that matter when you're pushing feeds in harder alloys - it keeps cutting temperatures down where carbide performs predictably.
The 0.006" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without sacrificing corner definition.
This geometry works particularly well in semi-finishing operations where you need stock removal rates but can't compromise edge integrity.
At 5/8" diameter, this end mill handles the middle ground between roughing and finishing in steel, iron, titanium, and nickel alloys.
The coating extends tool life in interrupted cuts common to these materials.
