Tool 961i3248C
Deep undercuts require more ball contact than standard profiles provide. The 961i3248C extends spherical engagement to 300 degrees.
- This geometry accesses profile areas that conventional ball mills cannot reach.
- The extended contact zone maintains consistent cutting forces through deeper undercut operations, reducing chatter in challenging geometries.
- Four flutes balance surface finish with chip evacuation in steel and aluminum applications.
- The 0.323" neck diameter supports the 0.5" cutting diameter while maintaining rigidity during extended reach operations.
- TiB₂ coating adds hardness and wear resistance for extended tool life in ferrous materials.
- The coating's low friction properties help with chip flow in the deeper contact zones this geometry creates.
- The 961i provides access to undercut profiles that standard ball mills cannot machine effectively.
