Magnate EM1116 End Mills, 2-Flute MicroGrain Solid Carbide - 11/64" Mill Diameter Reviews
Niagara Cutter DPC560 Cobalt Steel End Mill, General Purpose, Regular Length, TiN Coated, 4 Flutes, Double Square End, 3/8" Cutting Length, 1/8" Cutting Diameter Reviews
The Niagara Cutter DPC560 TiN-coated cobalt steel double-end square end mill has four flutes and a 30-degree helix angle for general-purpose machining on a range of materials. The double-end design has cutting edges on both ends, allowing a new cutting surface to be substituted when the first shows wear, which doubles the tool’s life compared to single-end square nose end mills. Four flutes produce a better finish than two flutes. The general-purpose TiN coating combines stability at high temperatures with hardness for wear protection, increasing tool life and performance compared to uncoated end mills. (TiN is suitable for a range of materials, but TiCN or uncoated end mills are recommended for machining aluminum.) The cobalt steel substrate can be run at faster speeds and stays sharp longer than high-speed steel tools, while offering resistance to heat and abrasion.
The 30-degree helix angle supports general-purpose applications. It balances lower angles’ strong cutting edge for difficult-to-machine materials with higher angles’ increased cutting action. The tool’s square end has straight cutting edges to create sharp, unrounded cuts. The center-cutting design has cutting teeth at the end of the tool. It can be fed straight into the workpiece like a drill bit for plunge cutting, and used for applications such as slotting and profiling. Cutting diameter tolerance is +0.000” to -0.0015”. This tool has a Weldon shank.
End mills are designed to remove material and create multi-dimensional shapes and profiles. They have cutting edges along the outside diameter and flutes that remove chips from the cutting area and allow cooling fluids to enter. If heat is not reduced effectively, the tool’s cutting edges will dull and additional material buildup can occur. The number of flutes can range from two to eight. Two-flute designs offer the most efficient chip removal, but more flutes provide a smoother finish. The shank is the end of the tool held in place by a tool holder or machine. Center-cutting end mills can create three-dimensional shapes and profiles, and make plunge cuts similar to a drill bit. Non-center-cutting end mills are for applications such as peripheral milling and finishing, but cannot make plunge cuts.
Niagara Cutter has been designing and manufacturing precision cutting tools since 1954. Specializing in end mills, cutting mills, and saws, the company is based in New York and manufactures its tools at facilities in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. This allows the company control over production, from substrate to coating, which is essential for customers in a variety of industries, especially aerospace and automotive.

Niagara Cutter C360 Carbide End Mill, High Helix General Purpose, TiCN Coated, 3 Flutes, Square End, 3/4" Cutting Length, 1/4" Cutting Diameter Reviews
The Niagara Cutter C360 TiCN-coated carbide square nose end mill has a 60-degree helix angle for light profiling and finishing applications on a range of materials. The number of flutes varies; fewer flutes provide better chip-carrying capacity, while more flutes produce a finer finish. The 60-degree helix offers increased cutting action compared to end mills with lower helix angles, as it moves excess material quickly up the spiral and away from the workpiece. .
The TiCN coating lubricates the end mill for high-temperature stability, and offers increased hardness and greater abrasion resistance than uncoated or TiN-coated tools. The carbide substrate is harder than high-speed or cobalt steel, making it more wear resistant at high speeds and providing longer tool life. The tool’s square end has straight cutting edges that create sharp, unrounded cuts, and the center-cutting design has cutting teeth at the end of the tool, so it can be fed into the workpiece like a drill bit. The cutting diameter is +0.000” to -0.002”. The round shank accommodates a range of tool holders.
