Product Overview
The 2501-S is a 1/8" 2-flute solid carbide square end mill built for max material removal in aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and plastics. It's part of CGS Tool's Ferocious Series, made for machinists pushing extreme feed rates on small-diameter work where precision can't slip.
Ground from sub-micro grain carbide, it carries a 55° high helix for strong chip evacuation and lower cutting force, which shows up directly in the surface finish. The polished cutting edges and free-cutting geometry keep built-up edge in check, so even at this small diameter, tool life holds up through repeated high-speed CNC runs.
