Precision Aluminium Finisher
The M.A. Ford 13618750 is a two-flute end mill designed for finishing passes in aluminium and other non-ferrous alloys. Its geometry reduces chatter and leaves a smooth surface that often eliminates secondary polishing. Machinists running CNC routers or milling centres will find it suited to high-speed profiling and contour work. The tool ships new and carries a California Proposition 65 notice for listed chemicals.
Sustained Cutting Behaviour
The two-flute design evacuates chips efficiently during long profiles, keeping flute loading low even when the spindle runs at elevated feed rates. Heat buildup stays manageable because the aluminium chips carry thermal energy away from the cutting zone. Operators can maintain consistent surface finish across extended runs without frequent tool changes. The cutter holds dimensional tolerance through the full depth of cut.
Shank Mounting & Daily Use
A standard cylindrical shank fits common ER collets, Weldon flats or hydraulic holders without adapters. The 3/16 diameter matches many tool-changer pockets, simplifying magazine loading. Carbide construction resists edge wear when the tool grazes fixtures or encounters intermittent cuts. The Proposition 65 label means shops must follow local handling and disposal rules for the listed substances.

Questions about this item
How much noise, heat or power does the 13618750 end mill generate during continuous cutting?
The tool itself produces no noise, heat or power draw; those come from the milling machine and spindle you run it on.
What machine and holder must I already own to use this 3/16-inch, 2-flute finisher?
You need a milling machine with a spindle that accepts a 3/16-inch shank and a matching collet or end-mill holder.
Will this Tuffcut Al finisher work in an older manual mill that I plan to keep?
Yes, it fits any mill — manual or CNC — that can hold a 3/16-inch shank and run at appropriate speeds for aluminium.
