M.A. Ford 15004720 Tuffcut GP 2-flute ball nose end mill 1.2mm pneumatic accessory

Product identity

The M.A. Ford 15004720 Tuffcut GP is a 1.2 mm diameter 2-flute ball nose end mill designed for general-purpose milling in a pneumatic accessory format. It suits machinists and toolroom operators who need a small-radius cutter for contouring and finishing operations.

Setup checks

Verify that your pneumatic spindle or tool holder accepts the shank configuration used on this accessory and that the machine can run at the speeds required for a 1.2 mm cutter. Confirm the workpiece material is compatible with the general-purpose geometry and that the tool length suits your fixture clearance.

Thermals noise power

In normal use the cutter generates heat at the cutting zone; ensure adequate coolant or air blast to manage temperature and chip evacuation. The pneumatic drive produces characteristic motor and airflow noise, so hearing protection is advisable. Power draw depends on the spindle motor and cutting parameters rather than the accessory itself.
