Cleveland C60955 2-Flute Carbide Ball Nose End Mill
The Cleveland C60955 is a 2-flute carbide ball nose end mill with a .5 inch milling diameter. It is an uncoated, non-coolant-through tool designed for general-purpose milling in machine shops and maintenance departments.
Thermals noise and power draw
As a rotary cutting tool, the end mill produces no operational noise, thermal output or electrical power draw of its own. Heat and sound are generated only by the machine spindle and the material being cut during use.
.5 inch milling diameter
The .5 inch cutting diameter is the primary specification that determines whether this end mill matches the required slot, pocket or contour dimensions for a given job. Buyers needing a smaller or larger cutting diameter must select a different tool.
Highlights
- .5 in milling diameter for broad profiling tasks
- Two-flute carbide design clears chips efficiently
- Uncoated surface suits dry machining operations
- Ball nose geometry produces smooth contour finishes
- Single-end construction keeps tool changes simple

Questions about this item
How do I install the 0.5 in carbide ball nose end mill in my milling machine, and what step do people often get wrong?
Clamp the shank securely in a clean collet or holder, ensuring the 0.5 in cutting diameter runs true; the step often missed is verifying concentricity with a dial indicator before cutting.
What maintenance or replacement will the uncoated carbide end mill need over time?
The uncoated carbide flutes will dull with use and cannot be economically re-sharpened; plan to replace the tool once edge wear affects surface finish or dimensional tolerance.
What limit appears first on the 2-flute ball nose during sustained profiling cuts?
Heat buildup at the cutting edges is the primary limit, as the uncoated carbide lacks a thermal barrier and the two-flute design offers limited chip clearance in deep slots.
