Tool 960i1203C
Standard ball nose end mills quit at tight undercuts. This 270-degree spherical geometry pushes past that limit.
- The extended ball profile reaches 270 degrees around the sphere, giving you access to undercut features that conventional ball nose tools simply cannot machine.
- Where a standard ball nose stops at the equator, this geometry continues cutting well beyond it.
- The 0.117" neck diameter provides clearance for deep pocket work while maintaining rigidity at the 0.1875" cutting diameter.
- Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in steel and aluminum applications.
- TiB₂ coating adds wear resistance when cycling through longer tool paths in production runs.
- The extended geometry means more cutting edge contact during contouring operations.
- Effective for undercut radius work, complex 3D profiling, and deep pocket finishing where access matters more than pure speed.
