With a 3\/8 inch cutting diameter, a 40-degree high-helix angle, and a Zplus PVD coating, this single-end tool delivers efficient chip evacuation and surface finish quality in both roughing and finishing operations. The reduced neck profile and variable index flute spacing minimize chatter and vibration during aggressive cuts. It is intended for use by machinists and CNC operators working in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is engineered specifically for aluminum alloys and non-ferrous metals, making it a go-to tool for aerospace, automotive, and general machining applications where these materials are common. The 2.125 inch reach length and reduced neck diameter of 0.356 inches allow access to deep pockets and contoured surfaces without sacrificing rigidity. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard ER and side-lock toolholders common in CNC milling setups. It is sold as a single-end tool and ships individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute ball nose geometry supports both roughing and finishing in a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree high-helix angle promotes aggressive chip evacuation in aluminum and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZplus PVD coating reduces built-up edge and extends tool life in non-ferrous applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable index flute spacing reduces harmonic vibration and chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduced neck design provides extended reach of 2.125 inches for deep-pocket milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eh6 tolerance on both mill diameter and shank diameter ensures consistent, accurate fitment in precision toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for milling aluminum alloys and non-ferrous materials (primary workpiece material code: N).
