END MILLS

Solid Carbide End Mills are a wise choice for many milling applications. They are ideal on tough or abrasive materials. Carbide also has the benefit of high heat resistance. On many jobs, Solid carbide end mills, can be run faster than HSS or Cobalt End Mills, resulting in much higher productivity rates thereby lowering tool setting time / down time. Additional benefits due to the rigidity of carbide is its high precision and excellent surface finish. Carbide End Mills are successfully being used for severe metal cutting operations (High Nickel Based Alloys) which require high strength. In general the more flutes on end mills, the better the machine finish. If workpiece finish is of major importance select four or more flutes. For higher production rates fewer flutes will allow higher chip carrying capacity.

Square/Centre cutting & Ball Nose End Mills

Manufactured from 12% Cobalt Micro grain carbide, the Square End Mills and Ball nose end mills are suitable for finish milling of most ferrous metals at higher speed and feed rates. Depending on the number of flutes the end mills are used for roughing or finishing. Available in TiN, TiCN, TiALN and Multi layer hard coating. The range includes STANDARD LENGTH, EXTENDED LENGTH, LONG REACH, STUB (ECONOMY LENGTH), TAPER & SPECIAL END MILLS.
