200 Series

Tool 200i156L010C

Small diameter work in aluminum gets tricky fast. Heat builds quicker, chips pack tighter, and there's less room for error before you're looking at a broken tool or scrapped part.

The 200i156L010C brings 3-flute geometry down to 0.1563" diameter.
Three flutes distribute cutting forces while keeping chip load manageable.
Critical when there's less carbide mass to absorb vibration.
The TiB₂ coating handles the thermal load that comes with smaller tools running at higher surface speeds.
It stays chemically inert with aluminum, preventing the adhesion that kills fine-diameter cutters.
The R0.01" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without compromising corner definition.
Small enough to maintain crisp features, large enough to prevent chipping under interrupted cuts or when entering at angles.
