M.A. Ford Tuffcut Al End Mill
This M.A. Ford Tuffcut Al end mill is a two-flute cutting tool with a necked design. It is manufactured for milling operations in aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. The 3/16 size suits precision profiling and slotting tasks. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.
Machinists working with aluminium
The necked geometry provides reach for deeper cavities without sacrificing rigidity. Shops needing a dedicated aluminium cutter will find the two-flute design effective for chip evacuation. Buyers who require tools for hardened steel or high-temperature alloys should look at alternative tooling. This item ships directly from the manufacturer.
3/16 diameter with necked profile
The 3/16 cutting diameter and necked profile determine whether this tool fits the programmed toolpath and workpiece clearance. Orders of $75 or more ship free from the manufacturer. Verify the dimensions against your CAM setup before purchase. The product carries California Proposition 65 warnings for cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 3/16 inch necked end mill or a different diameter for aluminium work?
The 3/16 inch necked Tuffcut Al end mill is designed for aluminium machining with two flutes that evacuate chips efficiently in non-ferrous materials.
What does the 2-flute design mean when the tool is cutting in a CNC machine?
Two flutes provide large chip space for aluminium, reducing clogging and allowing higher feed rates while the necked shank reaches deeper features without rubbing.
How does the shank interface affect what I can cut with this end mill?
The standard shank fits common ER collets and Weldon holders, so the tool runs true in any milling spindle that accepts the corresponding shank diameter.
