OSG Carbide 3 Flute Centre Cutting Square Edge End Mill DLC Coated Short Length - For Aluminium - 12mm

The OSG Carbide 3 Flute Centre Cutting Square Edge End Mill is a precision carbide milling tool designed for aluminum work. With a 12 mm diameter and a compact short-length body, it delivers sturdy performance in tight spaces while maintaining clean, accurate cuts. Its three-flute design strikes a balance between effective material removal and stable cutting, making it a reliable choice for profiling, slotting, and pocketing aluminum components.

• Centre-cutting, square-edge geometry: enables true plunge milling and produces precise, square shoulders, delivering consistent results even in shallow cavities and complex pocket profiles.
• Three-flute configuration for efficient aluminum milling: optimized flute count provides fast material removal with good rigidity and surface finish, reducing chatter and improving predictability in demanding aluminum work.
• DLC coating for enhanced durability: Diamond-Like Carbon coating boosts wear resistance and tool life, helping maintain sharpness and reducing downtime in repetitive aluminum machining.

This end mill is a dependable choice for machinists, engineers, and hobbyists who need consistent performance in aluminum applications. The combination of a short, rigid design, center-cut capability, and durable DLC coating helps you achieve reliable results, shorter cycle times, and a smoother workflow—from roughing through finishing—without the need for frequent tool changes.
