Cleveland C60182 2-Flute Carbide Square Double-End GP End Mill

Cleveland C60182 End Mill

The Cleveland C60182 is a 2-flute carbide square double-end general purpose end mill designed for milling operations. It suits machinists and fabricators who need a versatile cutting tool for slotting, profiling and plunging in a range of materials. The uncoated carbide substrate provides a balance of hardness and toughness for general workshop use. Both cutting ends extend tool life by offering a fresh edge when one end wears.

Upgrade from single-end or HSS tooling

This double-end design replaces single-end mills by delivering two usable cutting ends per holder, reducing tool change frequency and inventory cost. The carbide construction upgrades from high-speed steel when longer edge life and higher cutting speeds are required on ferrous or non-ferrous metals. The jump is worth it for shops running repeated short production batches where tool change downtime adds up. Uncooted carbide performs best when coolant or air blast manages heat effectively.

Sustained load behaviour

Under sustained load the 0.375 in diameter carbide body resists deflection better than HSS, maintaining dimensional accuracy during extended cuts. The 0.5625 in length of cut and 3 in overall length provide reach without excessive overhang, limiting vibration in deeper pockets. Uncoated carbide runs hotter than coated alternatives, so consistent chip evacuation is critical to prevent built-up edge during long runs. Straight shank ensures secure clamping in standard holders.
