200 Series

Tool 200i188LC

Built-up edge turns precision aluminum work into scrap fast. At 0.1875" diameter, there's even less margin for error when heat and chip adhesion start working against you. The cut either stays clean or it doesn't.

This 200 Series end mill uses three flutes to distribute chip load while maintaining reasonable feed rates.
Lower load per tooth means less heat generation at the cutting edge where aluminum wants to weld itself to your tool.
The geometry keeps chips moving before they have time to stick or reheat.
TiB₂ coating handles the demanding passes where uncoated tools start to struggle.
It reduces friction without the aluminum affinity issues you get with AlTiN coatings.
The R0.004" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge while still maintaining the sharp geometry aluminum requires.
