1.4 mm ball-nose end mill

The M.A. Ford 156M0140N8A Tuffcut DM is a 1.4 mm diameter ball-nose end mill with a two-flute design and a necked profile. It is manufactured by M.A. Ford for precision milling tasks in a workshop environment.

Machinists needing a small-radius cutter

This tool suits machinists producing contoured surfaces, finishing passes or detailed 3-D profiles in metal or plastic. It is not intended for heavy material removal, high-feed roughing or applications requiring a larger cutting diameter.

1.4 mm cutting diameter and necked reach

The 1.4 mm ball nose handles fine detail work and tight internal radii with adequate chip clearance from two flutes. The necked shank provides extra reach for deep cavities, though the small diameter limits rigidity and maximum depth of cut in harder alloys.

Questions about this item

What size collet or tool holder is required for the 1.4 mm shank on this end mill?

A collet or holder that accepts a 1.4 mm diameter shank is needed; the necked design also requires enough clearance behind the flutes.

Will the necked 1.4 mm ball nose reach past fixtures that a standard length tool cannot?

Yes, the necked profile provides extra reach behind the 2 flute cutting area for deeper cavities.

How can I confirm the ball nose is cutting true after installation?

Run a test pass and check for a smooth hemispherical finish with no chatter marks on the workpiece.
