The large clearance between the cutting teeth, combined with internal coolant delivery, promotes efficient chip evacuation. The axial clamping of inserts on the end teeth increases milling stability. This helps to minimize noise and vibration which, in turn, helps in reducing tool wear. The special surface treatment of the body is nickel plated for a higher resistance to corrosion and lower abrasion.
