M.A. Ford 16504680 Tuffcut GP 4 Flute Ball Nose End Mill Stub 3/64 pneumatic accessory

M.A. Ford Tuffcut GP End Mill

The M.A. Ford 16504680 Tuffcut GP is a 4 flute ball nose end mill with a stub length and 3/64 diameter. It is designed for general-purpose milling in a range of materials using CNC machines or manual mills. Machinists and fabricators use it for contouring, slotting and pocketing operations where a ball profile is required. The tool suits workshops needing a reliable cutter for everyday metal removal tasks.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a solid carbide rotary cutter, the end mill generates heat through friction at the cutting interface rather than through electrical consumption. Thermal load depends entirely on spindle speed, feed rate, material hardness and coolant strategy employed by the machine operator. No electrical power draw or acoustic rating applies to the accessory itself; the machine spindle determines those characteristics. Proper speeds and feeds with adequate coolant manage temperature at the cutting zone effectively.

California Proposition 65 warnings

The product carries California Proposition 65 warnings for chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. These regulatory notices inform the user about substances present in the tool material or coatings. The warnings do not alter the cutting performance, geometry or dimensions of the end mill. Safe handling practices such as wearing gloves and avoiding dust inhalation address the listed concerns during use and resharpening.
