Product Overview
The CGS Tool HV243-1250 has a 1/8” diameter, 4 flute, solid carbide corner radius end mill, made for high performance milling in steels and various alloys. It’s built as part of the Hi-Velocity (HV) Series , so it brings that kind of power you want when you need speed and also sharp precision , for roughing, and finishing both.
Built out of premium micro grain carbide, the HV243-1250 has a variable helix, plus a variable index layout, and then it gets an ALTiN coating too, which helps it handle heat better and keep going longer even at high RPM. The free-cutting style helps with smoother surface results and better chip clearing , and it also keeps vibration and wear down a bit , so machinists can run higher feeds and speeds, without losing accuracy.
