Precision Micro End Mill
The M.A. Ford 156M0050N2A is a two-flute ball nose end mill with a 0.50 mm cutting diameter. It is engineered for high-precision machining in detailed mould, die, and micro-component applications. This new cutting tool serves machinists and engineers requiring tight tolerances on intricate 3D contours.
0.50 mm Cutting Diameter
The half-millimetre diameter is the critical specification determining suitability for micro-machining tasks. It enables fine detail work and tight internal radii that larger tools cannot achieve. Buyers needing to remove material faster or cut wider profiles must select a tool with a larger diameter.
Carbide Micro-Machining Setup
This tool requires a high-speed spindle capable of precise runout control at elevated RPM and a rigid tool holder suited for micro-shank tooling. It frees the operator from the deflection and chatter common with scaled-down general-purpose cutters. It is not for manual milling machines or low-rigidity router setups lacking the necessary spindle speed and holding precision.

Questions about this item
How does the 0.50 mm cutter diameter perform in a real machining setup?
The 0.50 mm diameter allows precise contouring and finishing in tight corners on a CNC machine.
What shank interface does the 156M0050N2A use and what does that limit?
The tool uses a standard shank for direct collet or holder clamping, limiting run-out to the holder's precision.
What physical clearance does the necked design need to fit in a fixture?
The necked profile requires sufficient reach clearance behind the flute length to avoid holder interference.
