MA267/MA263 Advance Milling Tools

Available in diameters from 1/8" to 1", the MA267/MA263 Advance tools are excellent for machining all other ISO N materials, such as copper, brass, bronze and magnesium-based alloys, in addition to aluminum. With a cylindrical shank, these tools are available with or without chip-splitters. The WJ30UU grade for the MA267/MA263 tools is uncoated, and the WJ30CD grade features a wear-resistant zirconium nitride (ZrN) coating to achieve maximum productivity and tool life. The MA263 with chip breaker geometry reduces cutting pressure and vibration at high feed rates. Both versions offer end geometry that is designed for aggressive ramping.
