End mill (diameter 12.7) — tungsten cobalt alloy Key benefits - Durable cutting performance: Made from tungsten cobalt alloy for high hardness and improved wear resistance, giving consistent cutting life across repeated use. - Accurate, efficient cuts: Material properties and precise manufacturing deliver stable, precise milling for reliable surface finish and dimensional control. - Versatile for machining tasks: A 12.7 diameter suits a range of milling operations where that cutter size is required, simplifying tool selection for medium-sized features. What it does and why you need it - Function: A dedicated end mill for milling operations, designed to remove material, machine profiles, and produce slots or faces with predictable results. - Problem solved: Reduces tool change frequency and variability in part quality by combining durable alloy construction with stable cutting performance. - Standout attribute: The tungsten cobalt alloy balances hardness and wear resistance to maintain edge life and repeatable results under normal shop conditions. Important attributes - Function: End mill for general milling operations - Size: Diameter 12.7 - Material: Tungsten cobalt alloy (high hardness, wear resistant) - Performance: Efficient, precise cutting with reliable and consistent results across applications Practical use scenarios - Producing a series of 12.7 diameter slots or pockets in a fixture where consistent cutter diameter is critical for fit and assembly. - Finishing the profile of a machined part where stable surface finish and dimensional repeatability are required. - General-purpose milling operations in a machine shop setup when a durable, wear-resistant tool for medium-sized features is needed. Purchase note - This end mill is intended for standard milling operations and provides a balance of hardness and wear resistance for steady, repeatable machining performance.
