Solid Carbide Tools Patented Variable Rake End Mills The Z-Carb-AP offers performance so advanced, it goes way beyond typical "High Performance" end mills. • Superior chatter suppression through advanced patented design • Increase productivity by cutting deeper and wider without harmful harmonics • Lower cutting forces promote longer tool life Featuring SGS'exclusive:

Advanced Patented Design Delivers Advanced Productivity With conventional end mills, the cutting teeth entering and exiting the material creates a natural rhythm that results in damaging harmonics. Harmonics produce a frequency that resonates through the entire tool, resulting in one of the most damaging forms of cutter wear known as chatter. Chatter degrades the quality of your finish. It also creates tool pressure which has a negative effect on tool life. If you use conventional long reach tools, your chatter problem is further compounded by deflection, which limits your maximum speeds...
