End Mills for Aluminum deliver maximum metal removal rates (MRR) in aluminum alloys. Engineered with anti-adhesion geometries and advanced coatings, these tools solve built-up edge (BUE), burrs, and chip welding. Achieve superior surface finishes while extending tool life – the industry-proven solution for milling, slotting, and contouring operations.
Core Advantages
- Adhesion-Blocking Coatings
Nano TiAlN/ZrN coatings eliminate aluminum sticking. Reduce cleaning downtime by 40% and boost tool lifespan. - Rapid Chip Evacuation
Polished parabolic flutes ensure smooth chip removal at 35,000 RPM. Prevent workpiece scratches during high-speed aluminum milling. - Vibration-Reduced Cutting
Variable helix angles (30°-45°) suppress chatter marks. Sharp rake angles lower cutting forces for thin-wall machining. - High-Speed Machining (HSM) Ready
Balanced 2/3/4-flute designs handle 18,000-35,000 RPM. Ideal for high-volume aluminum production. - Universal Compatibility
Fit all CNC mills, routers, and engravers. Diameters: 0.5-20ミリメートル (+ custom sizes). Shanks: Straight/Weldon/BT/CAT/HSK.

End Mill Selection Guide: Best for Aluminum
By Operation
- Roughing: 2-flute, 45° helix, robust core → High MRR
- Finishing: 4-flute, polished coating → Ra≤0.4μm
- Deep Pockets: Extended reach → Avoid tool deflection
- Thin Walls: Low cutting-force geometry → Zero deformation
By Material
- Soft Al (e.g., 1060): Uncoated 2-flute → Prevent BUE
- Hard Al (e.g., 7075): TiAlN-coated 4-flute → Wear resistance
- Aerospace Alloys: DLC coating → Chip adhesion control
For Machine Type
- High-RPM CNC: Lightweight straight shank → Reduce vibration
- Heavy-Duty Mills: BT40/CAT50 shank → Maximize rigidity
- Cost-Driven Jobs: Uncoated carbide → Budget efficiency
