Vortex Carbide End Mill For Aluminium & Non-Ferrous - 3 Flute Variable Hi Helix -DLC Coated - 2.5mm x 50mm

The Vortex Carbide End Mill is a precision cutting tool engineered for high-speed machining of aluminum and non-ferrous alloys. With a 2.5 mm diameter and 50 mm overall length, it shines in deep slots, fine detailing, and confined work areas where precision matters most.

• Diameter × Length: 2.5 mm diameter with 50 mm overall length for controlled reach in tight slots and narrow profiles.
• Premium Carbide Construction: High-grade carbide substrate delivers exceptional hardness, rigidity, and wear resistance for sustained performance at high spindle speeds.
• 3-Flute Variable Helix: Variable helix balances cutting strength with efficient chip evacuation, reducing clogging in deep slots and suppressing vibration for superior surface integrity.
• Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) Coating: Low-friction DLC coating minimizes heat and built-up edge, extending tool life and maintaining clean cuts on aluminum and similar soft metals.
• Non-Ferrous Material Optimization: Specifically designed for aluminum, copper alloys, magnesium, and other soft metals, enhancing chip evacuation and reducing sticking.
• Precision Finish & Tolerances: Delivers mirror-like finishes and consistently tight tolerances in demanding applications like aerospace components and medical device housings.

This end mill moves chips efficiently upward and outward, preventing recut chips and surface degradation in deep pocketing, slot milling, and profiling tasks. The combination of a DLC coating and optimized geometry maintains cutting temperatures and minimizes sticking, enabling reliable high-speed performance and extended tool life—reducing tooling costs per part while delivering repeatable, high-quality results.
