Key Features
Recommended Applications
The UF(600) is developed for applications where cutting heat, material adhesion and tool wear can limit conventional end mill performance.
Stainless Steel Milling
The AlCrN coating provides strong anti-adhesion performance to help reduce sticking and built-up edge during stainless steel machining.
Titanium Alloy Milling
Suitable for high-speed and demanding machining of titanium alloys and other difficult-to-cut materials.
Hardened Steel Milling
Designed for machining hardened steel up to 50 HRC under appropriate cutting conditions.
Dry & Coolant-Assisted Milling
Suitable for dry cutting, medium-speed machining and coolant-assisted applications depending on the workpiece, machine setup and cutting conditions.
Why Choose the UF(600)?
High-Performance Fine-Grain Carbide
The UF(600) uses 0.6μm fine-grain carbide to provide a balance of hardness, wear resistance and cutting stability for demanding milling applications.
AlCrN Coating for High-Temperature Machining
The high-performance AlCrN PVD coating provides excellent resistance to high-temperature oxidation and maintains cutting performance under elevated cutting temperatures.
Strong Anti-Adhesion Performance
When machining stainless steel, material adhesion and built-up edge can quickly affect surface quality and tool life. The UF(600) is designed to reduce these common problems.
Built for Difficult-to-Machine Materials
The combination of fine-grain carbide and AlCrN coating makes the UF(600) suitable for materials where cutting heat, adhesion and workpiece hardness create additional machining challenges.
