Product Overview
The CGS Tool 1006-ALTiN is a 1/4" diameter 4-flute solid carbide square end mill from the Beast 1000 Series, built specifically for roughing and slot milling where the goal is removing material fast while keeping the load off the spindle.
The exclusive chip breaker design is the key feature here — it breaks chips up so they clear more easily, which cuts down on the load the spindle has to fight through. Paired with a variable helix and the ALTiN coating for added heat and wear resistance, it's a strong option for steels, stainless, cast iron, titanium, alloys, Inconel, and select non-ferrous materials.
