Tool 960i0801C
Tight undercuts in steel demand precise tool geometry and surface protection. Standard ball nose end mills lack the reach.
- The 960 Series extends ball contact to 270 degrees, accessing undercut profiles that conventional geometry cannot reach.
- Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in steel, aluminum, and most machinable metals.
- The 0.076" neck diameter provides clearance in restricted access applications while maintaining rigidity at 0.125" cutting diameter.
- TiB₂ coating handles the heat and wear that develops during steel machining operations.
- The coating maintains sharp cutting edges longer than uncoated tools, particularly important when working in confined spaces where tool changes are costly.
- The extended ball geometry cuts where standard end mills physically cannot go.
