Product Overview
The CGS Tool MX243-2500.010 is a ¼ diameter, 4 flute solid carbide corner radius end mill that is made for high performance machining, you know , the kind where hardened steels, stainless steels, titanium, cast iron, Inconel, Hasteloy, and other rare alloys need to be handled cleanly. Being part of the VMAX MX243 Series, this tool brings stable machining performance, better surface finishes, and remarkable toughness for harsh CNC milling operations, even when things get a bit noisy and tight.
The MX243-2500.010 also has a modern variable helix plus variable pitch design that helps reduce chatter, cutting harmonics and that whole vibration thing. So you get smooth machining with efficient material removal. Its advanced nACRo high performance coating brings serious heat resistance and wear protection, while the .010’ corner radius boosts cutting edge strength, durability, and reliability for heavy duty milling applications that demand consistency.
