200 Series

Tool 200i500Y030C

Aluminum work hardens fast when the edge isn't sharp enough or the cut isn't aggressive enough. You end up chasing your tail. Duller tool, more work hardening, even duller tool. The half-inch diameter hits that sweet spot where you need enough rigidity for material removal but can't afford the heat buildup of a larger cutter.

The 200i500Y030C runs TiB₂ coating over solid carbide substrate.
TiB₂ stays chemically inert with aluminum.
No pickup, no welding, no built-up edge formation that kills surface finish.
The R0.03" corner radius distributes cutting forces better than a sharp corner while maintaining clean entry into the material.
Three flutes keep individual chip loads manageable at higher feed rates.
Designed for aluminum, copper, and plastics where heat management determines whether the job works or doesn't.
