200 Series

Tool 200i313X015C

Aluminum work hardens fast in tight corners. Sharp edges that should cut cleanly instead create pressure points, and pressure without proper chip evacuation means heat buildup and adhesion. The result is built-up edge that turns your surface finish into a mess.

The 200i313X015C handles this with a 0.015" corner radius that distributes cutting forces across a broader contact patch.
Three flutes maintain reasonable feed rates while keeping chip load per tooth low enough to prevent welding.
The TiB₂ coating adds thermal barrier properties for demanding passes where heat generation becomes unavoidable.
High helix geometry moves chips out before they can stick or reheat.
This matters most in slotting operations where chips have limited escape routes and tend to pack.
