6 Flute End Mills for Finishing

Our 6 flute end mills are recommended for finishing
passes and can be run at increased speeds and feeds
where a perfect finish is required. Working these mills
hard is a good thing. The Variable Index reduces
the harmonics to allow for fast smooth cutting. The
Eccentric Relief provides a very strong and sharp
cutting edge for a long life and our complex multiple dish angles on the end face makes for an excellent flat and
smooth finish. These end mills are Center Cutting.
We offer the 6 flute end mills in FerroCon and InoxoCon coating. Both coatings are relatively universal and will work
in Steel, Tool Steel, Stainless Steels and Nickel based alloys. But, if you predominantly or exclusively machine Steel
and Tool Steel the best coating is FerroCon. If you predominantly or exclusively machine Stainless Steels, Titanium or
other Nickel based Super Alloys the best coating is InoxoCon.
