Product Overview
The CGS Tool 5306-S is a 1/4" diameter 3-flute solid carbide square end mill built specifically for aluminum and non-ferrous machining where chip flow and finish quality matter as much as feed speed. It belongs to the Ferocious 3x 5300 Series, CGS Tool's aluminum-focused line.
What sets this tool apart is the ZrN coating, matched to aluminum cutting, working alongside a wiper end and variable helix/pitch geometry to reduce chatter and improve surface finish. It's built for strong stock removal in aluminum, copper, brass, non-ferrous material, plastics, and composites.
