Product Overview
The CGS Tool HV142-2501 has a 1/4” diameter, 4-flute, solid carbide ball end mill made for high performance machining on steels and alloys. It sits in the Hi-Velocity (HV) Series so it brings this kind of strength, speed, and precision that feels kind of unmatched, for roughing and also for finishing work.
Built from top quality micro-grain carbide, the HV142-2501 has a variable helix plus variable index geometry, and an ALTiN coating that helps with heat resistance and overall tool life when you’re running higher RPM. The free-cutting style supports nicer surface finishes and helps with chip evacuation, while also reducing vibration and wear, so machinists can push the feeds and speeds even more ,without losing accuracy.
