Tool 240m050C
Large diameter aluminum cuts test every aspect of your setup. Maintaining surface finish at production feed rates becomes difficult when chip recutting and heat buildup compromise the workpiece. The 240m050C addresses this with aggressive chip evacuation geometry.
- The 5-inch cutting diameter handles substantial material removal while the open 2-flute design prevents chip packing that would otherwise generate heat and degrade surface quality.
- TiB₂ coating reduces aluminum adhesion at the cutting edge, extending tool life in high-volume production runs.
- The R0.1" corner radius strengthens the edge geometry while maintaining the sharp cutting action aluminum requires.
- This tool performs in aerospace and automotive applications where dimensional accuracy and surface finish cannot be compromised by thermal effects or built-up edge formation.
- Two flutes balance cutting forces while maximizing chip clearance at elevated feed rates.
