Tool 960i3224B
Standard ball nose end mills stop at 180 degrees. When you need to machine undercut profiles or internal radii, that limitation costs time and setups.
- The 960 Series extends ball contact to 270 degrees.
- This geometry reaches into undercut features that conventional ball nose tools cannot physically access, eliminating secondary operations and reducing part handling.
- Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in steel and titanium applications.
- The 0.323" neck diameter provides clearance while maintaining rigidity at the 0.5" cutting diameter.
- AlTiN coating adds thermal barrier protection during extended cuts in steel.
- The aluminum titanium nitride layer maintains edge integrity when heat buildup becomes a factor, particularly in deeper pocket work where chip evacuation creates temperature spikes.
