Cutting Tool for Aluminium
The M.A. Ford 13515700N3 is a two-flute necked end mill designed for aluminium machining. Its 4.0 mm cutting diameter suits precision milling tasks in workshop environments. The tool targets machinists and fabricators who need reliable material removal in non-ferrous metals. This cutting tool arrives in new condition.
Necked Geometry and Coating
The necked shank provides extended reach for deeper cavities without interference. Two flutes allow efficient chip evacuation during high-speed aluminium cuts. The TuffCut Al designation indicates a geometry optimised for sticky alloys. California Proposition 65 warnings note chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm.
Workshop Thermal Behaviour
Aluminium machining generates heat that the two-flute design helps dissipate through large chip gullets. Proper coolant or mist reduces thermal load on the cutting edges. Power draw depends on spindle speed, feed rate and machine rigidity. Noise levels vary with the specific machining centre and workholding setup.

Questions about this item
What shank diameter does the 4.0 mm necked end mill require for tool-holder fit?
The cutter has a 4.0 mm cutting diameter with a necked profile; the shank matches standard holders for that size so it fits directly into a 4.0 mm collet or shrink-fit chuck without adapters.
What clearance does the necked section provide for deep-pocket milling?
The reduced neck behind the 4.0 mm flutes gives extra reach so the tool clears vertical walls and fixture clamps during deep cavity work in aluminium.
How should the 2-flute TuffCut Al end mill be mounted to avoid run-out?
Clean the shank and collet faces, insert the tool until the shank seats fully, then tighten the collet nut to the holder’s specified torque while supporting the cutter to prevent eccentric loading.
