961 Series

Tool 961i1208B

Tight undercuts demand more ball contact than standard geometry provides. The 961i1208B delivers 300 degrees of spherical engagement where conventional end mills fall short.

The extended ball geometry reaches further past the equator, accessing profile depths that would otherwise require multiple setups or specialized tooling.
AlTiN coating handles the thermal load in steel applications while maintaining edge sharpness through interrupted cuts.
Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in the confined geometry.
The 0.117" neck diameter provides clearance for deep pocket work while maintaining rigidity at 0.1875" cutting diameter.
This combination proves effective in steel, aluminum, and most machinable metals where complex 3D profiles require maximum spherical access.
