960 Series

Tool 960i1610C

Undercut profiles in tight spaces present a geometry problem. Standard ball nose mills cannot reach beyond their equatorial line.

The 960i1610C extends cutting contact to 270 degrees of the ball surface.
This geometry accesses undercut features and internal radii that conventional ball nose tools physically cannot machine.
The extended profile cuts above the equator where undercuts exist.
TiB₂ coating handles the thermal load in steel and aluminum operations.
The coating maintains edge integrity when cutting above the equator generates higher contact pressures.
Four flutes provide surface finish control at the small 0.25" cutting diameter.
The 0.158" neck diameter offers clearance in confined workpiece geometries while maintaining rigidity for the extended ball profile.
Works in steel, aluminum, and most machinable metals where undercut access is required.
