Product Overview
The CGS Tool 2048 has a 5/8” diameter, 2-flute solid carbide square end mill. It is made to push maximum material removal while keeping surface precision, especially with aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and plastics. It comes from the ferocious series, and it is meant for machinists who want top-tier output at extreme feed rates, no compromise.
Built using premium sub-micro grain carbide, the 2048 includes a 55° high helix that helps with chip evacuation, keeps cutting forces lower, and still delivers very clean surface finishes. The polished cutting edges, plus a free-cutting geometry, help cut down built-up edges while also keeping a great tool life, even when you run high-speed CNC work day after day.
