All purpose end mill

All purpose end mill
Material Application

 • Steel
 • Stainless steel
 • Cast-iron
 • Super alloys

Variable flute depth tools
Hardness ≤48HRc
Helix angle:~50°
Tolerances:
  shank diameter Dc — h10
  dmm — h6
For roughing to finishing in steel ≤48HRc, stainless steel, cast iron, HRSA and titanium
Generally this tool should be first choice.
Always use the shortest possible tool protrusion. This tool has a differential pitch to improve stability in roughing applications. If there are problems due to high axial forces, try an endmill with four cutting edges and 30° helix. If the chip space is not sufficient, try an endmill with three cutting edges and 45° helix (in weak materials and large ap an endmill with four cutting edges and 45° helix might work). For higher productivity in finishing applications use an endmill with more edges.
