3/8" Dia, 5" OAL, Ball Mill 4-Flute SE X-LONG REACH HSS TiALN, RKXL-12LN
Premium USA made 4 Flute HSS Single End Extra Long Length Ball Mill. High Speed Steel (HSS) provides good wear resistance and costs less than cobalt or carbide end mills. HSS is commonly used for general purpose milling applications. This end mill has a Ball Nose end cut and is TiALN coated. TiALN (Titanium Aluminum Nitride) coating is a high performance coating, which excels at machining abrasive and difficult to machine materials such as cast iron, aluminum alloys, tool steels, and nickel alloys. TiALN's impoved ductility makes it an excellent choice for interrupted cutting operations. Its superior oxidation resistance provides unparalleled performance in high temperature machining. TiALN does not exhibit edge brittleness and can used for interrupted cuts without chipping. TiALN should be targeted at applications that generate the highest heat level at the tools cutting edge.
