20.0 mm TuffCut AL End Mill

The M.A. Ford 13578707N5 is a 20.0 mm diameter end mill from the TuffCut AL range. It features a two-flute design with a necked profile for extended reach. This cutting tool is manufactured for milling aluminium and other non-ferrous materials. It is supplied in new condition.

Two-flute necked geometry

The necked body provides clearance when machining deep pockets or tall walls where a standard shank would interfere. The two-flute configuration creates larger chip gullets that evacuate aluminium swarf efficiently. This design reduces the risk of chip packing and tool breakage during aggressive profiling or slotting passes.

Aluminium milling specialists

Machinists focused on high-volume non-ferrous work gain the flute space and reach needed for deep features. Shops that primarily cut steel, titanium or hardened alloys should select a tool with a different coating and flute geometry. Buyers needing a higher flute count for finishing passes or a different diameter must choose another model.

Questions about this item

What shank diameter does the 20.0 mm necked end mill require in the tool holder?

The cutter has a 20.0 mm cutting diameter and a necked design; match the holder bore to the shank size shown on the tool shank.

Which orientation of the two flutes is correct when loading the Tuffcut Al into a collet?

Insert the tool so the flute openings face the direction of rotation; the necked section must clear the workpiece without contacting the holder face.

How often should the 13578707N5 end mill be inspected for wear when cutting aluminium?

Check the cutting edges after each job; replace the tool once the flute edges show rounding or the necked portion shows scoring.
