Cleveland 4-Flute Ball Nose End Mill

The Cleveland C63561 is a solid carbide ball nose end mill with a 0.5 inch milling diameter and four flutes. It features a bright, uncoated finish and is designed for general-purpose milling applications. This tool suits machinists and fabricators performing contouring or profiling work.

Replaces worn or smaller ball nose cutters

Switching to this four-flute carbide tool increases material removal rates and improves surface finish compared to two-flute or high-speed steel alternatives. The upgrade is worth it when production volume justifies carbide tooling and the machine spindle provides adequate rigidity for the larger diameter.

Verify shank compatibility and coolant setup

Confirm your tool holder accepts the shank diameter of this single-end mill before ordering. The uncoated, non-coolant-through design requires external flood or mist coolant for effective chip evacuation in most materials. Ensure your workholding is rigid enough for the cutting forces generated.

Questions about this item

What shank diameter does the .5 in ball nose end mill need in a tool holder?

The .5 in milling diameter requires a matching .5 in shank for a secure fit in standard collets or end mill holders.

How do you install the uncoated carbide end mill without damaging the flutes?

Insert the shank fully into the holder, tighten the collet evenly, and avoid side loading the 4-flute ball nose during the first plunge.

When should the bright uncoated carbide end mill be replaced?

Replace the tool when the ball nose radius shows visible wear, chip evacuation worsens, or surface finish degrades on the workpiece.
