Ball End Mill: 0.25" Dia, 0.5" LOC, 4 Flute, Solid Carbide MPN:36480

Ball end mills are multi-purpose cutting tools designed to create various types of holes, shapes, and contours on different materials using CNC or manual milling machines. Featuring a unique ball-shaped tip made of solid carbide, these versatile tools deliver precise, accurate results with great ease while minimizing vibration, chipping, and edge wear. The four flutes enable efficient heat dissipation while reducing cutting resistance allowing for rapid material removal. Furthermore, their 0.5-inch length of cut enables users to achieve greater depths and widths with a single pass while their 0.25-inch diameter provides excellent rigidity, stability, and precision under various machining conditions. Whether used for prototyping, production runs or hobby projects, ball end mills are indispensable tools for professionals and DIYers alike looking for optimal performance, speed, and accuracy.
