Tool 220i625C

3D profiling in aluminum has a specific chip control problem. The curved contact surface changes engagement constantly, and aluminum tends to weld to the edge.

The 220i625C is a 0.625" diameter 2-flute solid carbide ball nose end mill for contouring and profiling in aluminum, copper, and plastics.
Two flutes maximize chip clearance at the cutting zone, giving aluminum chips room to exit before adhesion becomes a factor.
The TiB₂ coating adds a hard, low-friction surface that reduces aluminum pickup and extends tool life in continuous cutting operations.
This coating maintains sharp cutting edges longer than uncoated tools when working through complex 3D geometries where constant material contact generates heat buildup.
The ball nose geometry handles direction changes smoothly while maintaining surface finish consistency across curved profiles.
