M.A. Ford 15004680 ball nose end mill
This M.A. Ford 15004680 Tuffcut Gp end mill is a 2 flute ball nose cutter sized at 3/64. It is designed for machinists and fabricators who need a small-diameter tool for contouring and finishing operations in a variety of materials.
Two flute geometry for chip evacuation
The single specification that decides fit is the two flute design. This geometry balances chip clearance with tool rigidity, making it suitable for slotting and profiling where efficient swarf removal prevents clogging and heat buildup.
Standard shank fits common holders
Installation is straightforward: the cutter mounts in any compatible collet or end mill holder matching the shank diameter. The most common issue is excessive tool deflection or chatter if the stick-out is too long for the two flute rigidity, so keep the overhang as short as the setup allows.

Questions about this item
What does the 3/64 size mean when I put this end mill in my machine?
The 3/64 inch diameter sets the cut width and corner radius for precision contouring and finishing passes in metal or plastic.
How does the 2-flute ball-nose geometry affect chip clearance and surface finish?
Two flutes give wider chip space for faster feed rates while the ball nose produces smooth radii on 3-D profiles.
What shank style does the 15004680 end mill use for tool-holder mounting?
It uses a standard cylindrical shank that clamps directly into ER collets, Weldon flats or shrink-fit holders.
