https://www.mskendmill.com/HRC55-Stainless-Steel-Aluminum-Carbide-Roughing-End-Mills-pd42331021.html  are tools used to carve material away from a workpiece – a process known as rotary cutting. End mills can be employed in a variety of milling activities, such as profile milling, tracer milling, face milling, and plunging. Generally speaking, end mills used for industrial milling are made of carbide – a hard-wearing material that surpasses traditional high speed steel.

End mills come in four distinct varieties: square end, ball end, corner radius, and roughing. Sizing is determined by the diameter for all but roughing end mills, which employ both diameter and tooth amount to register its size. A wealth of sizes and coatings can be had on offer for all four types.

When milling material, a variety of end mills can be selected to achieve a range of desired finishes. For square or 90-degree cuts, square end mills are the go-to option, featuring sharp edges to create precise edges. Rounded edges - perfect for making smooth, curved cuts - can be attained with a ball end mill. Corner radius end mills, meanwhile, offer a rounded corner to execute curved cuts. In addition, roughing end mills with large teeth and available in both square and ball end designs can be employed when needing to quickly remove material.

End mills come in a wide selection of materials, from high speed steel to cobalt to carbide. To enhance their capabilities and prolong their service life, end mills can be coated with an assortment of protective layers. The most popular coating is titanium nitride, which adds durability and tolerance against friction and heat.

The intricacies of a machinist's toolbox can be quite daunting, but not when end mills are involved. From the desired finish to the type of cuts being made, selecting the perfect end mill for each application is integral in obtaining quality outcomes. With a range of options to consider, including the material being milled, finding just the right end mill for any venture is becoming easier.
