Product Overview
The CGS Tool CR5306.020-S is the go-to for high feed aluminum work, with radius-corner protection , and it’s also built to keep things steady even when conditions get weird, if that makes sense. It’s a 1/4" diameter 3-flute corner radius end mill from the Ferocious 3x CR5300 Series, made for clean chip travel and solid edge strength.
On the tool, the .020" corner radius is what really supports the cutting edge, and the ZrN coating helps maintain clean cutting for aluminum, especially in those aluminum focused setups. You also get a variable helix, variable pitch, and a wiper end shape, so chatter tends to back off, which is why it can be handy for aluminum, copper, brass, non ferrous materials, plastics and composites.
