The patented unequal high helix of the Z-Carb MD reduces damaging harmonics by changing the angle at which each cutting edge enters and exits the material. Combined with unequal flute spacing and a heavy core, this end mill effortlessly machines hardened steels with incredible tool life.
Features
Rake
The original Z-Carb design with a negative rake, heavy core, and higher helix for strength and shearing of hard mold & die materials.
Corner
Enhanced corner geometry with tight tolerance corner radii.
Fluting
Unequal flute spacing helps to disrupt the rhythmic pattern created by the cutting edge helping to suppress damaging harmonics.
Coatings
The structural design of Ti-Namite-X is adapted to meet a diverse range of applications; everything from high- and low-alloy steels to hardened materials (up to 65 HRC core hardness). Ti-Namite-X is suitable for operations that require high cutting speeds, high temperatures at the cutting edge, and high metal removal rates.
