M.A. Ford 5.0 mm End Mill
The M.A. Ford Tuffcut Dm is a 5.0 mm diameter end mill designed for precision milling tasks. It features a two flute ball nose geometry with a necked profile for improved reach. The tool is supplied new and intended for workshop use.
Machinists needing ball nose reach
This cutter suits machinists who require a small diameter ball nose tool with extended reach for contouring or finishing operations. Buyers who need a different cutting diameter or a higher flute count for alternative chip evacuation should consider other options. The Proposition 65 notice indicates the presence of listed chemicals.
2 flute ball nose necked geometry
The defining specification is the two flute ball nose necked design at 5.0 mm diameter. This combination determines the tool's ability to profile complex shapes in deep cavities. Verify that the neck length and overall dimensions match the specific machine setup before ordering.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 5.0 mm Tuffcut Dm generate during continuous cutting?
The solid-carbide 5.0 mm Tuffcut Dm runs cool under normal feed rates; standard flood coolant keeps the tool and workpiece at safe temperatures during extended sessions.
What shank size must my collet or holder accept for the 156M0500N25A?
The necked shank measures 5.0 mm, so a matching 5.0 mm ER collet, shrink-fit holder or hydraulic chuck is required for secure clamping.
Will the 2-flute ball-nose profile work on the older manual mill I still use?
Yes — the 2-flute geometry cuts cleanly on both manual and CNC machines, provided the spindle can reach the recommended speed range for 5.0 mm carbide tooling.
