Designed for machinists working with aluminum and other non-ferrous metals, the Vortex Carbide End Mill is a 2-flute, standard-length ball nose engineered for precise contouring and profiling.

• Diameter: 12 mm
• Flutes: 2-flute design for efficient chip formation and steady cutting
• End geometry: Ball nose enables smooth 3D contouring and precise fillets
• Length: Standard length offers reliable rigidity and practical reach
• Helix angle: 45° to promote efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces
• Material: Solid carbide for enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and tool life
• Best for: Aluminium and other non-ferrous metals, delivering clean edges and consistent finishes

The combination of a 45° helix and a ball-nose tip translates to smoother contouring passes, minimized tool deflection, and improved surface quality on complex geometries. With its carbide construction, this end mill stands up to repeated use in soft metals, maintaining sharpness for longer and reducing downtime from tool changes. Whether you're profiling, pocketing, or finishing intricate features, this tool delivers dependable performance and repeatable results.
