2-Flute Carbide Square End Mill
The Cleveland 81048 is a solid-carbide square end mill with two flutes for general-purpose milling. Its 0.4375 in cutting diameter and 7/16 in shank fit standard tool holders. The TiAlN coating adds wear resistance in steel and stainless alloys. It is suited for machinists running CNC or manual mills.
Non-Coolant Through Design
This tool has no internal coolant passages, so flood or mist coolant must supply heat removal at the cutting zone. Chip evacuation relies on flute geometry and external flow rather than through-spindle delivery. Users without high-pressure coolant systems can still run the cutter effectively. Builders needing through-tool coolant for deep pockets should select a different model.
0.625 in Length of Cut
The flute length of 0.625 in sets the maximum axial engagement in a single pass. Deeper slots require multiple step-downs or a longer-flute alternative. This dimension determines whether the mill reaches the required feature depth without deflection. Buyers needing more reach must choose a tool with a longer cutting portion.

Questions about this item
Which diameter and length-of-cut combination should I pick for my milling job?
This end mill has a 0.4375 in milling diameter and a 0.625 in length of cut, so choose it when those exact dimensions match your toolpath requirements.
How does the 0.4375 in diameter perform in a real milling setup?
The 0.4375 in carbide cutting diameter removes material at that width per pass, while the 0.625 in flute length limits the maximum depth you can cut in a single engagement.
What shank standard does the 7/16 in shank follow and what does it limit?
The 7/16 in straight shank fits standard inch-size collets and holders, and its diameter caps the maximum toolholder bore you can use without an adapter.
