Advantages of HSS, Cobalt and PM over Carbide
- Much higher toughness
- Enables use of large diameter end mills, taking heavier & deeper cuts
- PM end mills "wear," while carbide chips and breaks
- Machines often lack sufficient rigidity for carbide
- Long carbide end mills are weak and break
- Over 5/8” diameter, PM is much less costly than carbide
