960 Series

Tool 960i1604C

Standard ball nose end mills stop at the equator. The 960 Series reaches 270 degrees around the sphere.

This extended geometry accesses undercut profiles and internal radius features that conventional ball nose tools cannot physically reach.
The cutting edge continues past the equator into territory where undercuts and complex internal geometries live.
Four flutes provide balanced material removal in steel, aluminum, and most machinable metals.
The 0.158" neck diameter maintains rigidity while enabling clearance in confined spaces.
TiB₂ coating adds wear resistance when cutting through harder steel grades where tool life matters more than surface speed.
The coating chemistry handles the thermal cycling that comes with interrupted cuts in pockets and cavities.
At 0.25" cutting diameter, this tool fits the dimensional requirements for precision work where access determines success.
