Tool 200i500Z030C

Corner radius gets dismissed as a design afterthought. Sharp corners chip out under interrupted cuts, radiused corners last longer but leave a different finish. Most shops pick one extreme and live with the compromise.

The 200i500Z030C runs a 0.030" corner radius that balances edge strength against finish quality in aluminum work.
Three flutes distribute cutting forces while the high helix geometry moves chips out before they can weld to the tool face.
TiB₂ coating handles the demanding passes where uncoated carbide would load up with aluminum particles.
The radius strengthens the cutting edge without creating the drag that larger radii introduce.
Chip load stays manageable across all three flutes, preventing the built-up edge formation that kills surface finish in aluminum, copper, and plastics.
