.010 Ball End Mill – 4 Flute

Finally a .010 ball end mill that holds up in stainless without chipping on the first pass. The round tip leaves such a clean curved detail on my engraving work, and the solid carbide has stayed sharp through a full week of jobs.

The 4 flutes clear chips way better than the 2 flute I used to run, and the .010 ball tip cuts smooth curves in stainless without chattering. Ran it at a slow feed and got a clean finish on my first try.

Engraved some fine lettering into stainless with this and the 4 flutes cleared chips way better than the 2 flute I had before. Ball nose gives nice smooth curves on the detail work. Held up fine after a couple hours of cutting.
