Reduced Shank Cobalt End Mill (13mm Dia, 26mm Cut Length) for Heavy-Duty Machining of Harder Metals in Canada.
The Snail Tools HSS Co Two Flute End Mill (13 x 12 x 26 x 83MM) is a specialized tool designed to provide a larger 13 mm cutting diameter while fitting into a smaller 12 mm tool holder (reduced shank). This high-performance cutter is ideal for heavy material removal across a wide range of tough materials, including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-tensile alloys. The cobalt infusion ensures superior heat resistance, making it an essential cutter for demanding industrial applications across Ontario and the GTA.
Key Features & Industrial Machining
-
Design: 2 Flutes (Double Flute) – Offers increased tool strength and stability, making it ideal for general-purpose milling, slotting, and plunging operations in tougher materials where stability is critical.
-
Material: HSS Co (High-Speed Steel with Cobalt) alloy construction ensures superior hardness, allowing the cutter to maintain its sharp edge and structural integrity during high-temperature and heavy-load machining.1
-
Reduced Shank: Features a larger 13 mm Cut Diameter (D) with a reduced 12 mm Shank Diameter (d). This allows the use of a larger cutter diameter in machines limited to $12\text{mm}$ collet sizes.
-
Application: Ideal for general slotting, profiling, and plunging operations where maximum cutter size is desired without upgrading tool holding capacity, especially in ferrous metals in a production environment.
