Product Overview
The CGS Tool 242-1562 is a 5/32" diameter 4-flute solid carbide ball end mill built for compact profile and contour work, with a .0781" radius that gives a smooth rounded cutting form for small curved features.
With a 5/16" length of cut and 2" overall length, this 242 Series cutter gives controlled ball-end performance in smaller CNC work, and the uncoated carbide body makes it practical for standard general-purpose machining.
