Snail Tools Solid Carbide 2 Flute Spiral End Mill (3/8″ Cut, 1/2″ Shank, 3″ Long)

Key Features & Performance Benefits

  • Flutes: 2 Flutes (Double Flute) – Provides an optimal balance of cutting strength, rapid chip evacuation, and good surface finish, highly effective for deep slotting and material removal.

  • Stabilized Shank: Features a robust 1/2 inch Shank Diameter (d) supporting the 3/8 inch Cut Diameter (D), maximizing rigidity and stability for precision cutting, especially with the deep 1.25-inch cut length.

  • Spiral Type: Upcut (Chip Push Up) – Ensures aggressive chip removal and cooling, providing a clean bottom surface finish.

  • Length of Cut: The generous 1.25 inch Length of Cut (B) allows for deep slotting or efficient single-pass cutting through thick panels.

  • Material: Solid Carbide (WC) – Provides the necessary edge hardness and wear resistance for long life in both wood composites and non-ferrous metals.

Stabilized Double Flute Upcut Router Bit for Heavy-Duty Slotting and Chip Evacuation in Wood, Plastics, and Aluminum in Canada.

The Snail Tools Solid Carbide 2 Flute Spiral End Mill is a high-performance tool engineered for stability and deep cutting. The design features a robust, stabilized 1/2 inch shank supporting the 3/8 inch cutting diameter, which drastically minimizes vibration and deflection. This stabilized shank setup ensures high rigidity for precise, chatter-free cuts, particularly valuable during deep slotting. The standard upcut spiral geometry efficiently pulls chips upward and out of the cut zone, ensuring rapid chip evacuation and cooling—ideal when routing deep features or materials prone to melting or binding, such as aluminum, plastics, and dense wood. Constructed from Solid Carbide, this tool is essential for demanding CNC routing applications across Ontario and the GTA.
