Product Overview
The CGS Tool MX160-2500 is a 1/4” in diameter , six-flute solid-carbide square end mill, it’s built for high performance machining where you’re working with hardened steels, stainless steels, titanium, Inconel, and other exotic alloys or materials. And yeah, since it belongs to the VMAX MX160 Series, it’s engineered to bring strong machining stability, faster metal removal rates, and a pretty clean surface finish even when your CNC milling is doing something demanding.
The MX160-2500 also uses advanced variable helix plus variable pitch geometry, which kind of helps reduce chatter, and it limits harmonic vibration when you’re running aggressive cutting. On top of that , the premium nACRo high-performance coating gives you strong heat resistance and solid wear protection. That means better tool life, and steadier results even when cutting at higher speeds, higher feeds , and in those tougher setups.
