Bassett HPDEM-5 Series Solid Carbide High-Performance End Mill, TiAlN Coated, 5 Flute, 47 Degrees Helix, Square End, 0.625 inch Cutting Length, 1 /2 inch Cutting Diameter, 3 inch Length (Pack of 1)

Features

• Solid carbide tools offer long tool life and faster cutting speeds than other substrates, but are more brittle and must be used with rigid toolholding systems
• Titanium aluminum nitride coatings become self-lubricating when used at very high speeds, making them ideal for cutting without coolant ("dry machining")
• Weldon shanks feature a round shank with one of more flats machined into the side for easy indexing and alignment
• When run in a counterclockwise direction (right-hand cut) spiral fluted tools evacuate chips up and out of the cut to reduce clogging
• Ideally suited for use in stainless steel and exotics such as hastalloy, waspalloy, and inconel
• Made in the USA
