Questions about this product

Can I use this end mill to cut steel or other hard metals?: No, do not use this tool on steel. It is specifically designed for non-ferrous materials like aluminum, acrylic, wood, and composite plastics. Cutting harder metals will quickly chip or ruin the sharp carbide edge.
What is the maximum speed I can run this end mill at?: We recommend running this mill at a maximum speed of 20,000 to 30,000 RPM. The single-flute design and DLC coating help manage heat at these high speeds. Pushing the tool past these limits can cause premature wear or tool breakage.
Why should I choose a single-flute end mill with a DLC coating for aluminum?: Aluminum tends to melt and stick to cutting tools during machining. This single-flute design maximizes space for chips to escape to prevent clogging. Combined with the slick Diamond-Like Carbon coating, this tool stops aluminum from welding to the cutter.
