RHINO'S 4 FLUTE FLAT END MILL
The 4-flute flat end mill is a versatile cutting tool used in various machining operations. Its flat end design allows for peripheral milling and face milling. The tool features four flutes, which provide a balance between tool strength and material removal rate.
The tool's hardness is measured in HRC (Rockwell Hardness C scale), with options of 45, 55, and 65 HRC. Here's what each hardness level offers:
- 45 HRC: A general-purpose hardness suitable for most steel and cast iron applications.
- 55 HRC: A higher hardness for improved wear resistance, ideal for machining harder materials like alloy steels.
- 65 HRC: The highest hardness for maximum wear resistance and tool life, recommended for machining very hard materials or in high-production environments.
Key benefits of the 4-flute flat end mill include:
- Improved tool life and durability
- Increased material removal rates
- Smooth surface finishes
- Versatility in various machining operations
Common applications for this tool include:
- Milling flat surfaces
- Peripheral milling
- Face milling
