Made of high speed steel (HSS) which provides good wear resistance
It is commonly used for general purpose applications on both ferrous and nonferrous materials
Staggered tooth cutter is used for deep slotting and heavy milling applications
It has fewer teeth than straight cutters for better chip removal from the workpiece
Uncoated tools do not feature supportive treatments on the cutting edge
It is used at reduced speeds for general applications on nonferrous metals
