Tool 200i500S040C
Aluminum loves to weld itself to sharp corners. You get that telltale streaking, then the inevitable chatter as built-up edge throws everything out of balance. Corner radius matters more than most shops realize.
- The 200 Series brings a 0.04" corner radius to a 3-flute aluminum end mill geometry.
- That radius distributes cutting forces away from the vulnerable corner while maintaining clean exit cuts.
- The difference between a tool that runs 500 parts and one that runs 50.
- Three flutes keep chip load manageable while the high helix clears chips before they can reheat and stick.
- TiB₂ coating handles the demanding passes where uncoated tools start to struggle.
- Hard enough for interrupted cuts, smooth enough that aluminum won't grab it.
