Application && Target User
The M.A. Ford 15023620C is a 6.0 mm ball-nose end mill with two flutes from the Tuffcut GP range. It is supplied new and intended for general-purpose milling in a variety of materials using pneumatic or electric spindle tools.
Who It Suits && Who Should Look Elsewhere
Machinists needing a standard 6.0 mm ball profile for contouring, profiling or pocketing will find this cutter suitable. Shops that require more flutes for finer finish, a different shank style or a coated variant for abrasive alloys should consider alternative tooling.
Deciding Specification
The 6.0 mm cutting diameter is the primary dimension that determines whether this end mill fits the programmed tool path and holder. Confirm this size matches the CAD/CAM setup before ordering.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 6.0 mm shank of the 15023620C end mill into my pneumatic tool holder, and which step is commonly missed?
Insert the 6.0 mm shank fully into the collet or chuck, then tighten the collet nut to the tool holder's specified torque; the step often missed is verifying the shank is bottomed out before final tightening.
What maintenance or replacement will the 15023620C two-flute ball nose end mill need after extended use?
The cutting edges will dull and require resharpening or replacement; inspect the ball nose radius and flute condition regularly, and replace the tool when edge wear affects surface finish or dimensional accuracy.
What limit appears first on the 15023620C end mill during sustained high-speed milling?
Heat buildup at the 6.0 mm cutting zone typically limits sustained use first, causing accelerated flank wear on the two flutes and potential loss of the ball nose profile before shank or holder issues arise.
