Featuring a 0.5mm cutter diameter and a 5mm reach, this TiSiN-coated end mill is designed for mold makers and precision machinists who need to cut sharp, flat-bottomed corners in narrow profiles.\n\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTiSiN Coating:\u003c\/b\u003e The tool features a Titanium Silicon Nitride coating, visible as the durable bronze finish, which increases surface hardness and thermal stability for extended tool life.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLong Neck Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e With a 0.5mm cutting diameter and 5mm reach, this configuration allows the cutter to reach deep into narrow slots or pockets without the larger shank interfering with the workpiece.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e2-Flute Geometry:\u003c\/b\u003e The two helical flutes are optimized for efficient chip evacuation, preventing clogging during deep cuts in the extended neck section.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSquare Edge Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e The flat, square bottom edge creates precise 90-degree corners, making it ideal for pocketing, drilling, and step milling operations.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\nThis end mill addresses the challenge of machining deep, narrow features without tool deflection. The TiSiN coating reduces friction and heat buildup, ensuring consistent performance when cutting materials like steel or aluminum. The long neck design provides the necessary clearance for the tool holder while the small cutting diameter achieves intricate detailing, delivering accurate square corners and smooth finishes for complex geometries.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vortex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44227882811470,"sku":"PRO1500981","price":10.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0560\/3747\/4382\/files\/1_1afd603a-7e5c-448d-b2b5-3c5910629ffc.png?v=1787755466","url":"https:\/\/www.protool-ltd.co.uk\/products\/vortex-long-neck-flat-2-flute-end-mill-tisin-coated-square-edge-0-5mm-cutter-dia-x-5mm-reach","provider":"Protool Precision Tools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
