Applications
This milling cutter has been specifically developed for shoulder milling, slot milling, profile milling, and ramping. Thanks to the neck clearance, deeper cavities in die and mold making can be machined reliably. It is perfectly suited for finishing operations in steel, stainless steel, and cast iron.
Special features
The tool stands out with its exact 30° helix and centre-cutting design, which also permits vertical plunging. The fine-grain carbide base combined with the RT303 coating creates excellent conditions for consistent workflows, reduced wear, and high surface quality on the finished component.
