12.0 mm Tuffcut Al End Mill
The M.A. Ford 135472011N5 is a two-flute necked end mill designed for aluminium machining. Its 12.0 mm diameter suits slotting and profiling tasks where chip evacuation matters. The tool is sold new and ships directly from the manufacturer.
Solid carbide build with necked reach
The solid carbide body resists wear during high-speed cuts in non-ferrous alloys. The necked geometry extends reach into deep pockets without shank interference. Two flutes provide generous gullet space so aluminium chips clear cleanly on every pass.
Check spindle capacity and holder fit
Verify that your machine spindle accepts a 12.0 mm shank and that the tool holder provides sufficient grip length. Confirm the available stick-out covers the required depth of cut without exceeding the neck length. Orders of 75 or more qualify for free shipping from the factory.

Questions about this item
What cutting standard does the 135472011N5 meet for aluminium work?
The two-flute necked geometry is designed for high-speed aluminium milling and clears chips efficiently in non-ferrous materials.
What shank and clearance dimensions let the 12.0 mm necked end mill fit my holder?
A 12.0 mm cutting diameter with a reduced neck provides reach in deep pockets while the standard shank fits common ER collets and milling chucks.
How is the 135472011N5 installed in a CNC spindle and what step is often missed?
Clamp the shank fully into a clean collet, torque to the holder maker’s spec, then verify run-out before cutting — skipping the run-out check causes vibration and poor finish.
