Product Overview
The CGS Tool 242-3750-ALTiN is a 3/8" diameter 4-flute solid carbide ball end mill for profile and contour work where a .1875" radius gives you a smooth, rounded finish. It's a solid choice for finishing passes, surface blending, and curved pocket work that needs to come off the machine looking right.
With a compact 5/8" length of cut and 30° helix, it's set up for controlled, precise cutting rather than deep reach. The ALTiN coating helps it handle heat better during the more demanding jobs, and it performs consistently across mild steel, stainless, cast iron, titanium, non-ferrous stock, plastics, and composites.
