Featuring a 3mm cutter diameter with a 10mm reach, this tool provides the necessary length to access recessed areas, while the TiSiN coating ensures durability and reduced friction during high-performance cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e3mm Cutter Diameter x 10mm Reach:\u003c\/b\u003e The long neck geometry (approx. 3.3x length-to-diameter ratio) allows the tool to machine deep features and pockets that standard end mills cannot reach, reducing tool deflection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e0.5mm Corner Radius:\u003c\/b\u003e The rounded tip design allows for creating smooth, radiused pocket bottoms, which is essential for reducing stress concentrations and improving the fatigue life of machined parts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTiSiN Coating:\u003c\/b\u003e The cutting flutes and long neck feature a titanium silicon nitride coating, visible as a bronze finish, which increases surface hardness, resists heat buildup, and lowers the coefficient of friction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e2 Flute Design:\u003c\/b\u003e Equipped with two flutes for effective chip evacuation and stable cutting action, making it suitable for milling steel and alloy materials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePrecision Cylindrical Shank:\u003c\/b\u003e The uncoated, silver-finish shank is ground to tight tolerances, providing a secure clamping surface for ER collets or holdovers without interference from the coating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis end mill is specifically designed to solve the challenge of machining deep pockets with rounded corners (0.5R) where standard tools would be too short or lack the necessary radius. The combination of the long neck and TiSiN coating allows machinists to maintain higher feed rates and extend tool life in difficult materials. The 2-flute configuration ensures clean chip clearance, preventing surface damage and ensuring a consistent, high-quality finish in the pocket bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vortex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44228127588430,"sku":"PRO1501115","price":11.21,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0560\/3747\/4382\/files\/3_0d826a9b-4b04-4dfe-8f45-734cc6914307.png?v=1787756191","url":"https:\/\/www.protool-ltd.co.uk\/products\/vortex-long-neck-corner-radius-2-flute-end-mill-tisin-coated-3mm-cutter-dia-x-10mm-reach-x-0-5-corner-radius","provider":"Protool Precision Tools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
