Bull Nose End Mill Specification Options
A bull nose end mill has a flat cutting bottom with a defined corner radius at the outside cutting edge. Tooling catalogs also commonly list this geometry as a fraise en bout à rayon de coin.
General Dimensions
Use the following dimensions to specify the tool:
| Symbol | Dimension |
|---|---|
| D | Diamètre de coupe |
| R. | Rayon de coin |
| LOC | Length of Cut |
| d | Diamètre de la tige |
| OAL | Longueur totale |
| Z | Nombre de flûtes |
Check these dimensions together when selecting a standard tool or confirming a non-standard design.
Pour les outils non standards, send a drawing when available.

3-Flute Aluminum Series
OMIST offers a standard 3-flute series for aluminum and aluminum-alloy machining.
The confirmed series covers cutter diameters of approximately Ø1–Ø20 mm, with corner radii from R0.2 to R4 across the series. LOC, diamètre de la tige, and OAL vary by cutter diameter and tool design.
Cependant, not every diameter is available with every radius or length combination. OMIST confirms flute finish, traitement de surface, and cutting geometry according to the actual machining requirement.
4-Flute Standard Series
The confirmed 4-flute series covers cutter diameters of approximately Ø1–Ø20 mm.
Corner radii represented across the series include:
R0.2 / R0.3 / R0,5 / R1 / R2
Not every radius is available with every cutter diameter. The table below shows representative confirmed configurations rather than a complete model list.
| D (mm) | R. (mm) | LOC (mm) | Shank d (mm) | OAL (mm) | Flûtes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0.2 | 3 | 4 | 50 | 4F |
| 4 | 0.5 | 10 | 4 | 50 | 4F |
| 6 | 1 | 18 | 6 | 75 | 4F |
| 8 | 1 | 24 | 8 | 75 | 4F |
| 10 | 1 | 30 | 10 | 100 | 4F |
| 12 | 1 | 36 | 12 | 100 | 4F |
| 14 | 2 | 35 | 14 | 100 | 4F |
| 16 | 1 | 40 | 16 | 100 | 4F |
| 20 | 1 | 40 | 20 | 100 | 4F |
Other D, R., LOC, jarret, and OAL combinations depend on the required tool geometry and machining application.
Options standard et personnalisées
OMIST offers standard 3F and 4F series.
For applications outside the standard range, we can manufacture non-standard sizes and geometries. 2F, 5F, 6F, extended-length tools, and other flute configurations are available for custom requirements.
Custom options may include diameter, rayon de coin, LOC, OAL, taille de la tige, nombre de flûtes, hélix, revêtement ou traitement de surface, géométrie de coupe, conception à coupe centrale, et exigences de tolérance.
En outre, choisi 150 mm OAL configurations are available according to cutter diameter, atteindre, et géométrie.
We confirm final manufacturability after reviewing the required dimensions and application.
Candidatures et sélection
The 3-flute standard series is mainly intended for aluminum and aluminum-alloy machining.
The 4-flute series provides the main standard range for other machining requirements. Pour l'acier, acier inoxydable, acier moulé, or hardened-steel applications, OMIST reviews material hardness, dimensions de l'outil, opération d'usinage, atteindre, and cutting conditions before confirming the final configuration.
We also select coating or surface treatment according to the actual application rather than using one fixed specification for the whole product family.
Les applications typiques incluent:
- Contour milling
- Fraisage de profil
- Semi-finition
- Finition
- Usinage de moules et de matrices
- Cavity machining
- Pocket machining where a corner radius is acceptable
For applications that require a sharp cutting corner, voir Bull Nose vs fraise à bout plat.
For the difference between a flat-bottom radiused cutter and a fully rounded cutting end, voir Bull Nose vs Ball Nose End Mill.
Corner rounding form cutters are a different tool type used to produce an external workpiece radius. See Rayon de coin vs fraise en bout d'arrondi de coin.
Principales fonctionnalités
- Flat Bottom with Corner Radius: Combines a flat cutting end with a defined corner radius.
- Standard 3F and 4F Series: Covers multiple metric diameter, rayon, and length combinations.
- Application-Matched Configuration: Tool geometry and surface treatment depend on the workpiece and machining conditions.
- Fabrication sur mesure: Dimensions non standards, flute configurations, and cutting geometry can be produced from customer requirements or drawings.
Custom Bull Nose End Mill Manufacturing
OMIST supports standard and custom solid carbide bull nose end mills for machining companies, distributeurs, et exigences OEM.
Pour les outils non standards, we review the required dimensions, géométrie, center-cutting requirement, and dimensional or radius tolerance against the drawing and machining application.
If a standard size does not fit the part, send the required dimensions, dessin, échantillon, or reference image for manufacturability review.
For quotation, please provide the main tool dimensions, matériau de la pièce à usiner, opération d'usinage, et la quantité. A drawing is preferred for non-standard requirements, but we can also make an initial review from the available dimensions and machining information.
We confirm MOQ, achievable tolerance, and lead time after reviewing the specification and quantity.
FAQ
Une fraise à nez arrondi est-elle la même chose qu'une fraise à rayon d'angle?
For the flat-bottom, radiused-corner geometry covered on this page, “bull nose end mill” is a common market name, while tooling catalogs often use “corner radius end mill.” Confirm the exact tool by its dimensions and geometry.
What flute counts are available?
The standard ranges include a 3-flute aluminum series et un 4-flute series. OMIST can also produce 2F, 5F, 6F, and other flute configurations for custom requirements.
What standard sizes and corner radii are available?
The 3-flute aluminum series covers approximately Ø1–Ø20 mm, avec R0.2–R4 across the series.
The confirmed 4-flute range also covers approximately Ø1–Ø20 mm, avec R0.2, R0.3, R0,5, R1, and R2 represented across the series.
Actual diameter, rayon, and length combinations vary by tool size and design.
Can custom bull nose end mills be manufactured from a drawing?
Oui. OMIST can review non-standard dimensions and geometry from a drawing, dimensions requises, échantillon, or machining information.
How should I request a quotation?
Send the main tool dimensions, matériau de la pièce à usiner, opération d'usinage, et la quantité. For a non-standard tool, include a drawing or reference image when available.
