Product Overview
The CGS Tool 5304-S is a 3/16" diameter 3-flute solid carbide square end mill built specifically for aluminum and non-ferrous machining, where fast feeds and a clean finish both matter in the same pass. It belongs to the Ferocious 3x 5300 Series, CGS Tool's aluminum-focused line.
What sets this tool apart is the combination of a ZrN coating, matched to aluminum cutting, with a wiper end and variable helix/pitch geometry that fights chatter at speed. It's built to hold a clean finish under strong stock removal in aluminum, copper, brass, non-ferrous material, plastics, and composites.
