Product Overview
High-speed machining calls for a different class of tool, and the HV240-5004 answers that at 1/2" diameter. This 4-flute square end mill comes from the Hi-Velocity HV Series, built specifically for jobs where speed, edge strength, and finish quality all have to work together in the same operation.
Made from solid micro-grain carbide, this tool uses a variable helix and variable index design to stay stable at speeds where a standard geometry would start chattering. ALTiN coating adds heat resistance for the extra thermal load that comes with running fast, making the HV240-5004 a strong option for demanding work in steels, alloys, and other tough materials.
