M.A. Ford 1.5 mm ball nose end mill
The M.A. Ford 15005910 Tuffcut GP is a two-flute ball nose end mill with a 1.5 mm cutting diameter. It is designed for profiling, slotting and contouring operations in a range of workpiece materials. The tool suits CNC machinists and general engineering workshops that need a small-radius cutter for detailed work. Buyers who need larger diameters or higher flute counts for heavy roughing should look elsewhere.
Two-flute geometry and cutting capacity
The two-flute design provides generous chip clearance for efficient evacuation in softer metals and plastics. Its 1.5 mm diameter allows precise access to tight internal radii and fine detail features. The cutter reaches its limit when material removal rates demand a heavier core or when the machine spindle cannot maintain the required speed for such a small tool. It is not suited for high-volume roughing passes.
Solid carbide construction and shank mounting
The solid carbide body delivers the rigidity and wear resistance needed for consistent dimensional accuracy on small features. A standard cylindrical shank fits directly into ER collets, hydraulic holders or shrink-fit chucks without adapters. This simplicity reduces setup time and run-out risk in daily production. Workshops without precision tool-holding systems may not realise the full performance potential.

Questions about this item
Will the 1.5 mm ball nose fit the collet on my existing pneumatic die grinder?
The shank diameter matches standard 1.5 mm collets, so it fits most pneumatic die grinders that accept that size.
How can I verify the Tuffcut GP 15005910 is cutting correctly after installation?
Run the tool at recommended speed; a smooth, chatter-free finish and even flank wear show it is working as intended.
Does the box include only the 15005910 end mill or are collets and lubricant supplied?
Only the single 2 flute ball nose end mill is included; collets, lubricant and tool holders must be purchased separately.
