Product Overview
The CGS Tool 142-2500-ALTiN packs a 1/4" diameter, 4-flute ball end into the 142 Series lineup, and it's aimed squarely at compact contour work — curved pockets, tight surface blends, finishing passes where the feature doesn't leave much room to work with.
A .125" radius does the shaping here, and the ALTiN coating keeps the edge intact as it cycles through tougher machining conditions. With a 3/4" length of cut and a 30° helix backing it up, the 142-2500-ALTiN handles mild steels, stainless, cast iron, titanium, non-ferrous metals, plastics, and composites without drama.
