M.A. Ford Tuffcut Gp End Mill 18.0mm
This new M.A. Ford Tuffcut Gp end mill is a two-flute ball nose cutter built for precision milling tasks. It suits machinists and maintenance teams who need reliable material removal in a range of metals. The tool arrives ready for use in professional workshop environments.
18.0mm Cutting Diameter Defines Application Fit
The 18.0mm diameter is the single dimension that decides whether this cutter matches the required feature size and machine capacity. Selecting the correct diameter ensures proper engagement, chip clearance and surface finish for the programmed toolpath. Verify this measurement against the drawing before ordering.
Two-Flute Ball Nose Geometry for Contour Work
The two-flute ball nose profile excels at 3D contouring, pocketing and finishing passes where smooth radii are needed. It requires a rigid tool holder and a machine spindle capable of the recommended speeds and feeds for the workpiece material. The design frees up chip evacuation in deep cavities compared to higher flute counts.

Questions about this item
How does the 18.0 mm ball nose diameter affect milling reach and finish?
The 18.0 mm ball nose gives a wide cutting radius for smooth 3D contours and deep pocket work in a single pass.
What shank standard does the 15070870A end mill use for tool-holder fit?
The cutter is built to standard fractional shank dimensions used in common ER and Weldon holders.
What clearance does the 18.0 mm flute length need inside a machine spindle?
The 18.0 mm flute length requires at least that much usable spindle depth plus tool-holder gauge length.
