Tool 200i500X015C

Aluminum punishes the wrong tool fast. Chip welding, built-up edge, a finish that looks like the tool dragged instead of cut. If you've seen it, the setup wasn't right. Usually it starts with the cutter.

The 200i500X015C is a 3-flute solid carbide end mill built specifically for aluminum, copper, and plastics.
Three flutes keep chip load lower per tooth while maintaining feed rate.
That's the actual mechanism behind built-up edge prevention, the mechanism, not a geometry preference.
High helix promotes chip evacuation before heat or adhesion becomes a factor.
TiB₂ coating handles demanding passes where uncoated tools bog down.
The R0.015" corner radius strengthens the cutting edge while maintaining clean wall finishes.
Half-inch diameter gives you reach and rigidity for most aluminum work.
