Ball End Mill: 1/16" Dia, 0.1860" LOC, 1 Flute(s), Solid Carbide MPN:869562

Ball end mills are indispensable tools in machining and woodworking industries due to their versatility when it comes to performing roughing or finishing cuts on various materials like metals, wood or plastics. This particular model boasts a small diameter of 0.0625 inches yet reaches deep into recesses, while its length of 0.186 inches provides ample cutting surface for effective material removal. Its solid carbide composition increases durability compared to traditional high-speed steel materials for more extended use before sharpening is necessary while resisting heat and wear, preserving sharp edges much longer between honings. The single flute allows efficient chip ejection without clogging the tool path with debris, maintaining a smooth finish on complex surfaces. With 0-degree helix angle and 30 degrees clearance angle, it excels at performing slotting, profiling, contouring or roughing cuts in die/mold manufacturing, tool making or general machining applications with exceptional precision without chatter, vibration or excessive force when operated within recommended rpms for optimal performance.
