M.A. Ford 8.0 mm Ball Nose End Mill
This M.A. Ford 156M0800N50A is a two-flute ball nose end mill with a necked design and an 8.0 mm cutting diameter. It belongs to the TuffCut DM range and is supplied new for precision milling tasks.
For machinists needing a necked ball nose tool
Buyers who require a different cutting diameter or a higher flute count should look at other options. This tool is not suited for applications that demand a non-necked shank or a different end geometry.
8.0 mm cutting diameter with necked two-flute design
The 8.0 mm diameter and necked two-flute configuration determine the tool's reach and profiling capability. Verify these specifications match the required machining parameters before purchase.

Questions about this item
How long can the 8.0 mm necked shank run before deflection becomes the limiting factor?
The necked design extends reach for deep cavities, so deflection depends on overhang length and cutting parameters rather than a fixed time limit.
Does the 2-flute carbide generate noticeable heat or vibration during continuous profiling?
Carbide construction and two flutes provide efficient chip evacuation, keeping heat and vibration low during extended profiling passes.
What holder or collet size is required to clamp the 8.0 mm shank?
An 8.0 mm ER collet, Weldon flat holder or shrink-fit chuck matching the shank diameter is needed for secure clamping.
