1/8" Diam 270&deg MPN:960608-C3

The undercutting end mill with a 1/8 in diameter is well suited for machining soft metals or plastics that are hard to cut with standard tools due to their brittleness and tendency to build up chips during cutting operations, delivering high precision by eliminating heat buildup that could cause deformation in delicate parts. The 270-degree split point allows for starting on either forward or reverse directions without losing engagement while providing enough clearance for easy entry into narrow spaces where standard end mills may become stuck or cause collateral damage to the surrounding area while navigating intricate designs on molds or dies. Its two flutes minimize chips by moving them away from the cutting edge, maintaining sharpness and extending tool life for better performance at higher feed rates to save time during each pass while reducing labor costs in large scale manufacturing of electronic devices, automotive components, aerospace parts or medical equipment requiring clean cuts with minimal waste. In summary, this versatile carbide end mill provides cost-effective, precision cutting solutions across various industries ranging from prototyping shops to production facilities, serving engineers and machinists alike who rely on quality tools to deliver accurate results in demanding applications.
