M.A. Ford Tuffcut GP End Mill
The M.A. Ford 14027560A is a four-flute ball-nose end mill designed for general-purpose milling in a workshop or production environment. It suits machinists and fabricators who need a reliable cutter for contouring, slotting and profiling operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
Altima coating sustains cutting performance
The Altima coating reduces friction and resists heat build-up during extended passes, helping the tool maintain edge integrity when run at consistent feed rates. This behaviour supports longer cycle times without the rapid degradation seen in uncooled, short-burst test cuts.
Solid carbide body with standard shank
The solid carbide construction provides rigidity that resists deflection under side loads, while the standard shank fits common collets and holders without adapters. Note that the product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for substances linked to cancer and reproductive harm, so appropriate handling precautions apply.

Questions about this item
How much noise and heat does the 14027560A end mill generate during extended cutting sessions?
As a solid-carbide rotary cutter, the 14027560A produces only the sound and heat created by the machine spindle and chip formation; it adds no motor or electrical noise of its own.
What tool-holding system must I already own to run the 14027560A Tuffcut GP?
You need a milling machine or CNC spindle that accepts the shank diameter of this 4-flute ball-nose end mill, plus compatible collets or a hydraulic holder for secure clamping.
Will the Altima coating on the 14027560A wear faster when used on older, less rigid manual mills?
The Altima coating resists heat and abrasion, but excessive vibration or run-out on an older machine can accelerate flank wear and reduce tool life compared with a stiff CNC setup.
