Tool 960i1614B
Undercut profiles trap conventional ball nose end mills. Standard geometry hits interference before completing the cut.
- The 960 Series extends contact beyond 180 degrees to a full 270-degree sphere.
- This geometry accesses undercut features and internal radii that create collision problems with traditional ball nose tools.
- The extended ball profile cuts where standard mills physically cannot reach.
- AlTiN coating handles the thermal load in steel applications while maintaining edge sharpness in aluminum.
- Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation at 0.25" cutting diameter.
- The 0.241" neck diameter provides clearance for reaching into confined spaces while maintaining rigidity for consistent surface quality.
- Effective in steel, aluminum, and most machinable metals.
- The geometry works in both roughing and finishing operations where undercut access determines part feasibility.
