Description
Amana Tool 51865-Z CNC Square End Mill, Aluminum Cutting 1/4 D x 1-1/8 CH x 1/4 SHK x 3 Inch Long x 3 Flute SC ZrN Coated Up-Cut Router Bit
To be used only on CNC machines and routers with automatic feeding.
Produce super clean and extra smooth finish cuts in Aluminum and non-Ferrous metals.
Solid carbide industrial aluminum cutting ZrN coated router bits use the highest quality sub-micrograin carbide, have a special proprietary edge processing system and feature a super high polished cutting edge with a unique “mirror finish”, resulting in clean cuts, less chance for chip re-welding, a superior surface finish and a longer tool life.
Benefits of ZrN Coating:
- Creates incredibly precise detail work
- Optimized flute geometry and low Total Indicated Runout (TIR) guarantees clean cuts, essentially eliminates sanding and reduces chatter when used with low TIR spindles
- Creates a harder and tougher cutting ceramic over carbide edge, allowing for a prolonged cutting edge life and helps to prevent the build-up/galling of material in the flutes while cutting
- PVD ceramic hardcoat designed for soft, gummy and abrasive materials
- High aspect ratio for single pass deep-reach cutting
- High flute volume supports high feed rates and chip loads. Has the ability to run and/or be spun much faster than uncoated tools
- Flute geometry optimized for cutting sign foam, sign board, hardwoods, thermoplastics and phenolic composites
Excellent for cutting:
- Aluminum
- Aluminum 5052
- Aluminum 6061
- Brass
- Copper
- Gold
- Non-Ferrous Metals
- Silver
WARNING! Never attempt to cut ferrous metals with these bits. Inspect cut quality and adjust feed / speed accordingly. For optimal results and extended tool life use mist lubricant system or air cooling.
