Cleveland C38968 HSS End Mill

The Cleveland C38968 is a high-speed steel end mill with a TiCN coating designed for general-purpose milling tasks. Its 1/2 inch cutting diameter and center-cutting geometry suit machinists and maintenance technicians who need reliable slot and profile cuts in steel or cast iron.

Sustained cutting performance

The TiCN coating reduces friction and heat buildup during extended passes, helping the tool hold its edge longer than uncoated HSS. Center-cutting capability allows continuous plunge and ramp moves without pausing for chip clearance. Rigid 3-1/4 inch overall length limits deflection on deep pockets.

Highlights

  • High-speed steel construction resists wear during milling
