Europa Tools Carbide End Mill 3 Flute - Corner Radius Standard Length - For Aluminium - ALU XP - 16mm x R0.5

Engineered for high-speed aluminum milling, the Europa Tools Carbide End Mill with 3 flutes and a 0.5 mm corner radius delivers precise finishes and reliable stability in a standard-length form. Built for machinists working with aluminium and other non-ferrous materials, it combines a tough carbide cutting edge with ALU XP coating to maximize productivity.

• Diameter: 16 mm
• Number of Flutes: 3
• Corner Radius: R0.5 mm
• Length Type: Standard length
• Coating: ALU XP, optimized for aluminum machining
• Material: Solid carbide
• Cutting Application: Finishing and contouring in aluminum and non-ferrous materials
• Chip Evacuation: 3-flute design enhances chip removal for smoother cutting
• Performance: Suitable for high-speed machining with stable engagement

The 3-flute geometry promotes efficient chip removal, helping you maintain steady feeds and produce cleaner surfaces on aluminum profiles, pockets, and contours. The corner radius reduces chip-out at corners and smooths transitions, making it a reliable choice for finishing passes and intricate contour work. With ALU XP coating, this end mill resists wear and heat, enabling higher cutting speeds while preserving edge integrity. The standard-length shank provides balanced rigidity for both profiling and finishing tasks, delivering consistent tolerances and improved surface finish on aluminum workpieces. Ideal for manufacturers, makers, and job shops tackling radiator fins, heat sinks, enclosure panels, and prototype aluminum components.
