The combination of a powder-metallurgical HSS-E substrate with an Alcrona Primax coating delivers enhanced wear resistance and toughness in challenging machining environments. The four-flute design supports efficient chip evacuation and stable cutting, while the 35° helix and 12° rake angle promote smooth engagement and controlled chip formation during shoulder milling, slot milling, and ramping. The long reach with neck relief enables deeper pockets and ramp passes without sacrificing rigidity, and the 20 mm Weldon shank ensures secure clamping in standard holders for repeatable performance at higher feeds and speeds. This end mill is a dependable choice for shops machining alloy and stainless steels, cast iron, copper alloys, and high-temperature alloys, where precise roughing and reliable tool life matter.
