2-6 Flutes Aluminum End Mills Standard With Deep Groove Design

Product Description:

Polishing And Passivation Process

Unique polishing passivation process, significantly lowers the coefficient of friction. It is particularly suitable for aluminum with gold, copper alloys, tempered plastics, and other non-metallic materials;

Sharp Edge Design

The sharp blade design minimizes cutting resistance and effectively reduces burrs and vibration marks. The deep groove design optimizes chip removal function;

High Performance Aluminum Cutter

By fine grinding, the issue of chip sticking is perfectly resolved, enabling higher standards in appearance effects and increased metal removal efficiency;

Key Features of Aluminum End Mills:

Material:
Usually made from carbide (solid carbide or carbide-tipped) to provide rigidity and heat resistance.

Flute Count:
Generally equipped with 2 or 3 flutes. A lower number of flutes can prevent chip clogging and enhance chip evacuation, which is crucial for machining soft materials like aluminum.

Helix Angle:
Incorporates high helix angles (typically 35°–45°) to optimize chip removal and minimize heat buildup.

Surface Coating (or uncoated):
Typically either uncoated or coated with ZrN, TiB2, or DLC to enhance lubricity and reduce aluminum adhesion (galling). TiN coating is less common due to aluminum's tendency to adhere to it.

Geometry:
Featuring polished flutes and sharp cutting edges to reduce built-up edge (BUE) and extend tool life. Specific applications may require the use of corner radius or ball nose geometries.
