Carbide end mill for aluminum

This SPEED TIGER IAUE5-16-3 is a solid-carbide square end mill designed for high-performance metalworking. The 3-flute U-type geometry delivers a superior material removal rate when slotting aluminum and copper alloys. It is manufactured in an ISO-9001 facility and supplied as a single uncoated piece.

Roughing and finishing in non-ferrous metals

The cutter suits shops that need one tool for both roughing and finishing passes in aluminum. The double-relief tooth design and optimized flute geometry evacuate chips effectively to improve surface finish. Buyers working primarily in stainless steel, titanium or inconel should look at something else.

5/16 inch imperial diameter

The cutting diameter is 5/16 in (0.3125 inches) with a matching shank size for imperial tool holders. This dimension decides whether the mill fits the required holder and matches the programmed tool path. Verify the exact diameter before ordering.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 5/16 in carbide end mill generate during extended slotting in aluminum?

The high material removal rate and U-type flute design evacuate chips efficiently, reducing heat buildup during prolonged slotting operations in aluminum and copper alloys.

What shank size must my tool holder accommodate for this 5/16 in end mill?

The cutter has a .3125 inch shank diameter, so your collet or holder must accept a 5/16 in shank for secure clamping.

Will this uncoated 3-flute cutter work effectively in the same setup as my older ALTIBN-coated tools?

Yes, it shares the same 5/16 in shank and square-end geometry, allowing direct interchangeability, though the uncoated surface is optimised specifically for aluminum rather than harder alloys.
