Niagara Cutter N85294 Carbide Square Nose End Mill, inch, Uncoated (Bright) Finish, Roughing and Finishing Cut, 30 Degree Helix

Description

Specializing in end mills, cutting mills, and saws, the company is based in New York and manufactures its tools at facilities in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. With no coating or surface treatment, this uncoated tool can be used on a broad range of materials. The 30-degree helix angle supports general-purpose applications. The two flutes have better chip-carrying capacity than end mills with more flutes while offering additional support when the tool goes deep into the material in applications with a high depth of cut. They have cutting edges along the outside diameter and flutes that remove chips from the cutting area and allow cooling fluids to enter. Niagara Cutter has been designing and manufacturing precision cutting tools since 1954. Center-cutting end mills can create three-dimensional shapes and profiles, and make plunge cuts similar to a drill bit. Non-center-cutting end mills are for applications such as peripheral milling and finishing, but cannot make plunge cuts. Two-flute designs offer the efficient chip removal, but more flutes provide a smoother finish. The tools square end creates sharp, unrounded cuts, and the center-cutting design has cutting teeth at the end of the tool, so it can be fed into the workpiece like a drill bit. End mills are designed to remove material and create multi-dimensional shapes and profiles. Cutting diameter tolerance is +0.000 to -0.002. The round shank accommodates a variety of holders.

Key Features

• Two-flute designs offer the efficient chip removal, but more flutes provide a smoother finish.
• The two flutes have better chip-carrying capacity than end mills with more flutes while offering additional support when the tool goes deep into the material in applications with a high depth of cut.
• They have cutting edges along the outside diameter and flutes that remove chips from the cutting area and allow cooling fluids to enter.
• End mills are designed to remove material and create multi-dimensional shapes and profiles.
• The carbide substrate is harder than high-speed or cobalt steel, making it more wear resistant at high speeds and providing longer tool life.
• The 30-degree helix angle supports general-purpose applications.
