Meet the Vortex Carbide End Mill for Aluminium & Non-Ferrous—a precision cutting tool designed for engineers and hobbyists tackling aluminum and other non-ferrous alloys. With a 10 mm diameter and a 0.5 mm corner radius, this 2-flute cutter balances rigidity with efficient material removal for clean contouring, slotting, and profiling.

• Diameter: 10 mm
• Corner Radius: R0.5
• Flutes: 2
• Material: Carbide construction for stiffness and wear resistance
• Helix Angle: 45°
• Edge Geometry: Standard radius edge for smooth entry in aluminum and non-ferrous alloys
• Primary Applications: Contouring, slotting, and profiling in aluminum and non-ferrous materials

In use, the 45° helix reduces cutting forces and promotes efficient chip evacuation, delivering smoother surfaces and extending tool life. The two-flute design provides ample space for chip clearance in soft metals, enabling higher feed rates without sacrificing finish. The R0.5 corner radius preserves detail on edges while maintaining durability, making this end mill an excellent choice for lightweight enclosures, automotive components, and precision prototype parts where consistent tolerances matter.
