Tool 220m160C
Aluminum profiling at larger diameters amplifies heat buildup and chip adhesion issues. The extended cutting surface creates more opportunities for aluminum to weld to the tool, particularly on complex 3D geometries where engagement varies continuously.
- The 220m160C is a 16" diameter, 2-flute solid carbide ball nose end mill designed for contouring and profiling operations in aluminum, copper, and plastics.
- The two-flute configuration provides maximum chip evacuation space, critical at this diameter where chip volume increases substantially.
- TiB₂ coating adds a low-friction barrier that reduces aluminum adhesion while maintaining sharp cutting edges through extended cycles.
- The coating's hardness also supports edge integrity during interrupted cuts common in 3D profiling work.
- At 16" diameter, this tool handles large-scale aluminum components where surface finish and dimensional accuracy matter across extended tool paths.
