Tool 200i500S015C
Aluminum likes to weld itself to cutting edges, especially when you need to push feed rates or take heavier passes. The built-up edge forms, then tears away, taking carbide with it. Your surface finish goes from mirror to torn metal fast.
- The 200 Series uses three flutes to distribute chip load while maintaining throughput.
- Each tooth carries less material per revolution, reducing the heat and pressure that cause adhesion.
- High helix geometry moves chips out before they have time to weld.
- This specific cutter carries a TiB₂ coating that stays chemically inert with aluminum while adding wear resistance for demanding cuts.
- The 0.015" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge without sacrificing sharpness.
- Reduces chipping on entry and extends tool life in interrupted cuts or when pushing depths of cut beyond conservative recommendations.
