Snail Tools HSS M2 Roughing End Mill (20 x 20 x 35 x 80MM)

20mm HSS M2 Ripper End Mill for Maximum Aggressive Material Removal in Steel and Ferrous Alloys in Canada.

The Snail Tools HSS M2 Roughing End Mill is a large, heavy-duty cutting tool designed for maximum material removal during the initial roughing stage of machining. Its specialized roughing geometry (often featuring serrations or a wave-form edge) efficiently breaks chips into small, manageable pieces. This chip breaking capability allows for deepest cuts and highest feed rates while significantly reducing cutting forces and minimizing chatter compared to standard end mills. The robust HSS M2 material provides an excellent balance of toughness and economy for demanding hogging applications in mild steel, carbon steel, and cast iron across Ontario and the GTA.

Key Features & Maximum Roughing Efficiency

• Design: Roughing Geometry (Ripper/Hogging) – Breaks chips into small segments, which minimizes chatter, reduces cutting forces, and enables the highest achievable Material Removal Rates (MRR) for rapid stock reduction.

• Material: HSS M2 (High-Speed Steel) – A cost-effective and reliable material with good toughness, ideal for handling the high shock loads and demanding conditions of heavy roughing.¹

• Dimensions: Features matching 20 mm Shank Diameter (d) and 20 mm Cut Diameter (D), with a robust 35 mm Length of Cut (B) for deep roughing passes.

• Application: Essential for rapidly reducing stock size before a final finishing pass, significantly decreasing overall machining time on heavy industrial components.
