Example: HMQ-4EL can be read as HMQ series + 4 flute + square type + long edge structure. Exact dimensions such as D, d, H and L should be confirmed from the size table or RFQ.
Why End Mill Model Numbers Matter
A carbide end mill model number usually contains information about the product family, application direction, cutter geometry, number of flutes, length structure and sometimes shank or neck design. Reading the model number helps avoid wrong tool selection and makes RFQ communication faster.
- Identify square, ball nose and corner radius tool types.
- Understand whether a tool is standard, long edge, long shank or extra-long structure.
- Connect catalogue models with workpiece material and machining applications.
- Send clearer model number, drawing, coating and dimension requirements for quotation.

How to Read a Carbide End Mill Model Number
ONMY end mill model numbers can be read by separating the series, flute count, cutter type and length or structure codes.
| Model Part | Пример | Значение | Как это помогает при отборе |
|---|---|---|---|
| Series / Product Family | HMQ |
Economical carbide end mill family or catalogue product family. | Helps identify tool series and basic application direction. |
| Количество флейт | 2, 3, 4 |
Number of cutting flutes. | Influences chip evacuation, rigidity, feed rate and surface finish. |
| Cutter Type | E, D, R, B, U |
Square, sharp corner, round corner, ball nose or U-groove direction. | Defines the machined feature and related product type. |
| Структура длины | L, X, H, G, M |
Long edge, extra-long edge, long shank, extra-long shank or short edge. | Helps choose tools for deeper cutting, extended reach or rigid machining. |
| Dimension Codes in Size Tables | D, d, H, L |
D = cutting diameter, d = shank diameter, H = flute length, L = overall length. | Used when confirming exact tool size and quotation details. |

End Mill Naming Convention FAQ
What is an end mill model number?
An end mill model number is a catalogue code used to identify the tool series, flute count, cutter geometry, length structure and sometimes other design features.
How do I read an ONMY end mill model number?
Separate the model into product family, flute count, cutter type and structure code. For example, HMQ-4EL can be read as HMQ series, 4 flute, square type and long edge structure.
What does R mean in an end mill model?
R usually means round corner or corner radius. It refers to a bull nose / corner radius end mill, not a corner rounding cutter.
What does B mean in an end mill model?
B usually means ball nose. Ball nose end mills are used for 3D contouring, curved surface machining, mold machining and profile finishing.
What is the difference between length code and dimension code?
Length codes such as L, H, G, X and M in model numbers describe length structure. Dimension codes in drawings are different: D means cutting diameter, d means shank diameter, H means flute length and L means overall length.
What information should I send for an end mill RFQ?
Please send the model number, cutting diameter D, shank diameter d, flute length H, overall length L, coating requirement, workpiece material, hardness, quantity and drawing if available.
Can ONMY help identify a tool from an old model number?
Yes. You can send the old model number, drawing, sample photo or machining application. ONMY can review the tool type and recommend a suitable catalogue or custom option.
Can ONMY make a custom end mill based on a model number or drawing?
Yes. ONMY supports custom carbide end mills according to drawing, sample or application requirements, including diameter, flute length, overall length, shank, coating, radius and flute count.
