Product Overview
The CGS Tool 442-5000-ALTiN is a 1/2" diameter 4-flute solid carbide ball end mill with a double-end design, sized for broader profile work rather than fine detail. Its .250" radius produces a clean rounded form for curved pockets and surface blending across larger features.
The ALTiN coating handles heat and wear resistance under tougher cutting conditions, and with a 5/8" length of cut and 3" overall length, this 442 Series cutter gives practical value from both ends. It performs well across mild steels, stainless, cast iron, titanium, non-ferrous metals, plastics, and composites.
