Product Overview
The CGS Tool 422-5000 is a 1/2" diameter 2-flute solid carbide ball end mill from the 422 Series, built with a double-end design that gives shops extra usable tool life on repeat cuts. It's made for profile milling, contour work, and rounded pocket shaping.
Built on the same precision CNC equipment as CGS Tool's other general-purpose lines, it holds a 30° helix and a .250" radius matched to its diameter for a smooth, rounded finish. Uncoated and rated across mild steels, stainless, cast iron, titanium, non-ferrous metals, plastics, and composites, it's a practical general-purpose choice for keeping at the machine.
