Product Overview
The CGS Tool 742-3125-ALTiN is a 5/16" diameter 4-flute solid carbide ball end mill built specifically for profile and contour work where a clean, consistent radius matters more than raw speed. It belongs to the 742 Series, CGS Tool's general-purpose ball nose line, and it's aimed at everyday finishing and blending work.
What sets this tool apart is the reach it offers without complicating the cut — a 1-3/8" length of cut gives you room to work in moderately deep features, and the .1562" radius keeps the profile smooth from pass to pass. The ALTiN coating adds a layer of heat and wear resistance for the tougher jobs, and the 30° helix keeps everything moving predictably through mild steel, stainless, cast iron, titanium, non-ferrous material, plastics, and composites.
