M.A. Ford Tuffcut GP ball nose end mill

This M.A. Ford 15004500 Tuffcut GP end mill is a two-flute ball nose cutter designed for general-purpose milling in a workshop or production environment. It suits machinists and tool-room staff who need a new, small-diameter cutter for contouring or profiling work. The tool arrives as a single accessory ready for use in compatible tool holders.

.0450 inch cutting diameter

The decisive specification is the .0450 inch cutting diameter, which determines whether the cutter fits the feature size and tolerance required by the job. No other diameter or shank dimension is supplied in the data, so the buyer must confirm that this exact size matches the programmed tool path and holder capacity before ordering.

For precise small-feature milling.

This cutter suits users machining small radii, slots or contoured surfaces where a .0450 inch ball nose is specified. It is not for buyers who need a larger diameter, a different flute count, a corner-radius or square-end geometry, or a tool optimised for high-material-removal roughing. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.
