Cleveland C80560 5-Flute Carbide End Mill
This square end mill is a carbide cutting tool designed for high-performance milling in ferrous materials. It features a TiAlN coating to extend tool life and improve wear resistance during demanding machining operations. The straight shank design ensures compatibility with standard tool holders. Machinists and fabricators working with steel or iron alloys will find this tool suited for precision profiling and slotting tasks.
Half-Inch Diameter with One-Inch Cut Length
The milling diameter measures .5 in with a length of cut of 1 in, defining the maximum width and depth this tool can achieve in a single pass. The overall length is 3 in and the shank diameter is 1/2 in, matching common collet and holder sizes. Selecting this tool requires verifying that these dimensions match the specific feature sizes and machine clearance required for the job.
TiAlN Coating for Ferrous Material Performance
The TiAlN coating provides high hardness and oxidation resistance, allowing higher cutting speeds and feed rates in ferrous metals compared to uncoated carbide. This reduces built-up edge and improves surface finish on steel and iron workpieces. The tool is non-coolant through, so external flood or mist coolant must be supplied by the machine setup for optimal chip evacuation and thermal management.

Questions about this item
How does the 0.5 inch milling diameter affect slot width and finish in a real machine?
A 0.5 inch milling diameter cuts a slot exactly that wide, so the finished pocket matches the tool size without needing a second pass for width. The five flutes produce a smoother surface than fewer flutes at the same feed rate.
What does the TiAlN coating cap in terms of cutting speed and heat resistance?
TiAlN tolerates higher temperatures than uncoated carbide, letting you run faster surface speeds in steel and other ferrous alloys before the coating degrades. It also reduces built-up edge, which keeps dimensions consistent longer.
What holder or collet do I need for the 1/2 inch shank on this end mill?
Use a standard 1/2 inch ER collet, Weldon flat holder, or shrink-fit holder that matches the shank diameter. The straight shank has no flats unless you add them, so choose a holder style that grips a plain cylinder securely.
