Tool 960i0808C
Small undercuts demand precision access. Standard ball nose end mills hit geometric limits where you need them most.
- The 960i reaches 270 degrees around the sphere.
- This extended contact zone accesses internal radius features and undercut profiles that conventional ball nose geometry cannot physically reach.
- The cutting action occurs well above the equator, which is precisely where undercut material needs removal.
- Four flutes balance surface finish against chip evacuation in the 0.125" cutting diameter.
- The 0.076" neck diameter provides clearance in tight geometries while maintaining rigidity for the cutting forces involved.
- TiB₂ coating extends tool life in aluminum applications.
- The coating handles the heat buildup common in confined cutting zones while maintaining edge sharpness through extended cutting cycles.
- Works across aluminum and most other non-ferrous metals where undercut access matters.
