960 Series

Tool 960i0812B

Undercut profiles in tight spaces don't cooperate with standard ball nose geometry. The 960i0812B cuts where conventional tools hit interference.

270 degrees of ball contact reaches internal radius features and undercut geometries that stop at the equator on standard mills.
Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in steel, aluminum, and most machinable metals.
The 0.076" neck diameter provides clearance for restricted access while maintaining rigidity at 0.125" cutting diameter.
AlTiN coating handles the heat and wear that comes with cutting above the equator, where chip flow changes and cutting forces concentrate differently than conventional ball nose operations.
The coating extends tool life when working hardened steels or high-temperature alloys where standard uncoated geometry would wear quickly.
