200 Series

Tool 200i500L015C

Heat buildup kills aluminum cuts before the tool shows visible wear. The workpiece smears, chips weld to the flutes, and what should be a clean finish turns into a mess that requires secondary operations.

The 200 Series uses three flutes to balance feed rate with chip load management.
Fewer chips per tooth means less heat generation at the cutting edge, which directly prevents the adhesion that creates built-up edge.
The high helix angle moves chips away from the cut zone before they can reweld to either the tool or workpiece.
This half-inch version carries a TiB₂ coating for demanding aluminum work where uncoated tools bog down.
The R0.015 corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without compromising the sharp geometry aluminum requires.
Works effectively in copper and plastics using similar mechanisms.
