3-Flute Carbide End Mill for Aluminium
This uncoated carbide square end mill is built for milling aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. Its three-flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation in softer alloys. The tool suits CNC operators and machinists who need a sharp, general-purpose cutter for profiling, slotting and pocketing work. It arrives new and ready for immediate use in the shop.
Straight shank and non-coolant design
The cutter uses a straight 0.5 in shank held in standard collets or end-mill holders without a flat. No internal coolant passages are present, so flood or mist coolant must be supplied externally. The uncoated carbide substrate relies on the material’s natural lubricity rather than a coating to reduce built-up edge. Effective chip clearance depends on adequate external coolant flow and appropriate feed rates.
0.5 in diameter with 1.25 in length of cut
The half-inch cutting diameter and 1.25 in flute length provide sufficient reach for medium-depth pockets and side walls in aluminium plate. Overall length of 3 in keeps the tool rigid in shorter toolholders, limiting deflection during heavier cuts. The three-flute design balances material removal rate and surface finish but is not optimised for deep cavities or high-speed steel machining.

Questions about this item
Which shank diameter matches the .5 in milling diameter?
The shank diameter is 1/2 in, matching the .5 in milling diameter for direct collet fit.
What does the 1.25 in length of cut allow in a real machine?
The 1.25 in length of cut sets the maximum depth you can plunge or profile in a single pass without deflection.
How does the straight shank interface cap tool-holding options?
A straight 1/2 in shank fits standard ER collets and Weldon flats, limiting you to holders that accept that exact diameter.
