Product Overview
The CGS Tool MX143-5000.030 is basically a 1/2” diameter, 4-flute solid-carbide corner radius end mill, built for sort of high-performance machining when you’re working in hardened steels, stainless steels, cast iron, titanium Inconel, Hastelloy, and some other exotic alloys. And since it’s part of the VMAX MX143 Series, it tends to give dependable cutting stability, cleaner surface finishing, plus an extended service life even when the CNC milling gets really demanding.
On top of that, the MX143-5000.030 includes advanced variable helix and variable pitch geometry, which helps reduce chatter and machining harmonics. So you get a smoother cutting action and better machining efficiency overall. The premium nACRo coating gives strong resistance to heat and wear, while the .030” corner radius helps boost edge durability for consistent results during aggressive milling.
