2 flute end mill
This is a set of 2 flute end mill cutting tools used in industrial end milling applications. 2 flute end mills are used for superior chip evacuation in high-speed milling. These end mills are made of tungsten carbide which will tolerate a lot more heat while still keeping a good hardness., they possess only 2 cutting edges, which offer distinct advantages in Aluminum, MDF, solid wood, plastic, and acrylic.
2 flute end mill Application
- Slotting: Creating slots or grooves in a workpiece.
- Plunging: Cutting into the material without a preliminary drilling operation.
- Profiling: Creating complex shapes and contours.
- Machining aluminum and other non-ferrous metals: Due to their larger chip pockets, 2 flute end mills excel at removing material from softer metals.
- Roughing: Removing large amounts of material quickly, especially in smaller diameter end mills.
2 flute end mill Features
- Two flutes: The defining characteristic, providing efficient chip removal and reduced cutting forces.
- Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of materials, particularly non-ferrous metals.
- Strong flute design: Enables effective chip evacuation, preventing clogging and heat build-up.
- Plunging capability: Can be used for direct entry into the workpiece without pre-drilling
- Good surface finish: Generally produces a smooth finish due to fewer flutes.
- Corner radius: Improves tool strength and reduces chipping.
- Shank type: Straight shank, ball nose, or other options for specific applications.
- Coating: AlTiN, TiAlN, TiSiN, TiN, DLC (Diamond coating), Nano, and Diamond are for you to choose from to win over your competitors.
- HS Code reference for you to control everything:8207709000.

A 2 flute end mill is a cutting tool with two cutting edges or flutes. It’s a versatile tool used in milling operations to remove material from a workpiece.
Key characteristics:
- Two flutes: Designed for efficient chip removal and reduced heat build-up.
- Common applications: Slotting, plunging, and profiling.
Yes, 2 Flute End Mills Can Plunge
2 flute end mills are designed to handle plunging. This means they can be used to cut directly into a workpiece without requiring a pre-drilled hole.
This capability is one of the reasons for their popularity, especially in materials like aluminum where they excel.
A 2 flute ball end mill is a cutting tool with two cutting edges and a spherical tip. This unique combination makes it ideal for machining curved surfaces, creating radii, and producing smooth finishes.
Key characteristics:
- Two flutes: Efficient chip removal and reduced cutting forces.
- Ball-shaped tip: Enables the creation of rounded contours and profiles.
- Applications: Commonly used for mold and die making, prototype production, and general milling of curved surfaces.
A 2 flute end mill is primarily used for machining aluminum and other non-ferrous metals.
Its two flutes provide ample space for chip evacuation, which is crucial for efficiently removing the softer material.
2 flute end mills excel in machining softer materials and roughing operations, 4 flute end mills are better suited for harder materials and finishing tasks.
