Product Overview
The CGS Tool MX163-5000.030 is basically a 1/2” diameter 6-flute solid-carbide corner radius end mill, made for high performance machining, especially when you’re dealing with hardened steels stainless steels titanium Inconel Hastelloy and other kind of rare or “exotic” alloys. It comes under the VMAX MX163 Series, and the idea is to give really solid machining stability, better metal removal rates and those smoother looking surface finishes, even when the CNC milling conditions are tough.
On the MX163-5000.030 you get an advanced variable helix together with variable pitch geometry, which helps cut down chatter and reduces harmonic vibration during aggressive cuts. The coating is a premium nACRo high-performance finish, so you get strong heat resistance and wear protection. Then that .030” corner radius, it sort of boosts the cutting edge strength and durability too, so the tool stays more dependable for heavy duty milling work, even in demanding runs.
