M.A. Ford TuffCut DM Ball Nose End Mill
This M.A. Ford TuffCut DM end mill is a new cutting tool designed for precision milling tasks. It suits machinists and engineers who need a small-diameter ball nose cutter for detailed contour work. The two-flute necked geometry allows access to restricted areas. Buyers who require a larger cutting diameter or a different flute count should select another tool.
0.60 mm cutting diameter
The single specification that determines suitability is the 0.60 mm cutting diameter. This dimension fixes the minimum feature size and step-over possible in your program. Verify that your CAM strategy and workpiece material match this diameter before ordering. No other diameter or shank size is supplied with this model.
Carbide substrate for sustained cutting
The solid carbide construction maintains edge integrity during extended tool paths rather than only in light finishing passes. Heat resistance reduces wear when the cutter remains engaged for long periods. Consistent flute geometry supports stable chip evacuation at controlled feed rates. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item
What does the 0.60 mm diameter mean for reach in a real machine?
The 0.60 mm ball nose allows fine-detail profiling in tight corners and deep cavities where larger tools cannot reach.
What shank standard does the 156M0060N6A use and what does that limit?
It uses a standard shank for ER collets or shrink-fit holders, limiting runout to the holder’s tolerance.
What clearance does the necked design need to fit in a holder?
The necked section requires a holder with enough internal depth to clear the reduced diameter behind the flutes.
