Description
The Helixor HX45 6mm 2 Flute Square Carbide End Mill is a 2-flute square-end solid carbide end mill designed for efficient slotting and material removal in steel and other ferrous materials. It is made from sub-micron tungsten carbide for rigidity and cutting stability, and the AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and wear protection.
Why choose this 2 flute carbide end mill?
With only two flutes, each flute has a larger chip gullet, so chips clear easily from full-width slots and deep pockets. That makes a 2-flute end mill the better choice for slotting and plunging, while a 4-flute tool is better suited to side milling and finishing.
Recommended materials
- Carbon and alloy steels
- Pre-hardened steels up to 45 HRC
- Cast iron
