Product Overview
The CGS Tool M2212-S is an 8mm diameter 2-flute solid carbide square end mill. It's built for high-speed aluminum, non-ferrous, and plastic machining where edge strength matters as much as feed rate. It's part of the Ferocious 2000 series, designed for shops running it hard at extreme chip loads.
This tool carries the original 55° high helix geometry that defines the Ferocious line, giving it strong chip evacuation and a smoother cut at higher RPMs. The square end profile keeps clean, sharp corners for slotting and profiling work where a radius isn't what the job calls for. Add a ZrN coating on top, and tool life stretches further while the cut stays cleaner run after run.

Key Performance Features:
- 2-flute, 55° high helix, built around aluminium and non-ferrous machining.
- Square end profile holds sharp corners through slotting and profile work.
- Runs at high chip loads and feed rates per tooth without strain.
- Chip evacuation stays strong, which keeps the built-up edge from creeping in.
- Handles roughing, slotting, and contouring without swapping tools.
- ZrN coating adds reach to tool life and leaves a cleaner finish behind.
- Works across aluminum, copper, brass, non-ferrous metals, composites, and plastics.
