M.A. Ford 2.0 mm ball-nose end mill
This M.A. Ford 156M0200N4A Tuffcut cutter is a 2.0 mm diameter, two-flute ball-nose end mill with a necked shank. It is made for precision milling in a workshop or light-production environment. The tool suits machinists who need a small-radius profile cutter for contouring or finishing passes.
Two-flute geometry and necked shank
The two-flute design gives good chip clearance in softer materials, while the necked section provides reach into pockets without shank interference. Clamp the shank securely in a collet or hydraulic holder to minimise run-out. Excessive overhang or insufficient coolant can cause vibration and premature flute wear.

This product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for a chemical known to the state to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
