Niagara Cutter N85294 Carbide Square Nose End Mill - inch, Uncoated (Bright) Finish, Roughing and Finishing Cut, 30 Degree Helix

Description

The shank is the end of the tool held in place by a tool holder or machine. The tools square end creates sharp, unrounded cuts, and the center-cutting design has cutting teeth at the end of the tool, so it can be fed into the workpiece like a drill bit. With no coating or surface treatment, this uncoated tool can be used on a broad range of materials. Niagara Cutter has been designing and manufacturing precision cutting tools since 1954. The Niagara Cutter C230 uncoated (bright) carbide square nose end mill has two flutes and a 30-degree helix angle for general-purpose machining on a range of materials. Two-flute designs offer the efficient chip removal, but more flutes provide a smoother finish. The round shank accommodates a variety of holders. The carbide substrate is harder than high-speed or cobalt steel, making it more wear resistant at high speeds and providing longer tool life. Center-cutting end mills can create three-dimensional shapes and profiles, and make plunge cuts similar to a drill bit. It balances lower angles strong cutting edge for difficult-to-machine materials with higher angles increased cutting action. The two flutes have better chip-carrying capacity than end mills with more flutes while offering additional support when the tool goes deep into the material in applications with a high depth of cut. The number of flutes can range from two to eight. The 30-degree helix angle supports general-purpose applications.

Key Features

• End mills are designed to remove material and create multi-dimensional shapes and profiles.
• They have cutting edges along the outside diameter and flutes that remove chips from the cutting area and allow cooling fluids to enter.
• Two-flute designs offer the efficient chip removal, but more flutes provide a smoother finish.
• The two flutes have better chip-carrying capacity than end mills with more flutes while offering additional support when the tool goes deep into the material in applications with a high depth of cut.
• The carbide substrate is harder than high-speed or cobalt steel, making it more wear resistant at high speeds and providing longer tool life.
• The 30-degree helix angle supports general-purpose applications.
