Product identity
The M.A. Ford 15005911 Tuffcut Gp is a 1.5 mm diameter ball-nose end mill with two flutes, supplied new as a pneumatic accessory. It is intended for machinists and tool-room personnel who need a small-radius cutter for contouring or finishing operations in a variety of materials.
Sustained-load behaviour
The two-flute geometry provides ample chip space for continuous milling passes without clogging, while the ball-nose profile maintains consistent contact during 3D profiling. Carbide construction preserves edge integrity over extended cutting times, reducing the frequency of tool changes in production environments.
Thermal and power characteristics
Carbide substrate dissipates cutting heat efficiently, limiting thermal expansion during normal use. The tool operates within standard pneumatic spindle parameters, generating minimal vibration and noise when run at recommended speeds and feeds. No special cooling or power provisions are required beyond typical shop air supply.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 1.5 mm carbide flute generate during extended milling?
Carbide construction dissipates heat efficiently, reducing thermal buildup during prolonged cuts in steel or aluminium.
What collet or holder is required to run the 15005911 end mill?
A standard ER or collet chuck sized for a 1.5 mm shank fits directly into any compatible milling spindle.
Will the 2-flute ball nose profile work with an older manual Bridgeport mill?
Yes, the geometry cuts cleanly at conventional RPM ranges, provided the machine holds the 1.5 mm shank securely.
