M.a. Ford 13823620R.059 Corner Radius End Mill 6mm 3 Flute

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 13823620R.059 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for precision milling of non-ferrous metals. The tool features a 6 mm cutting diameter, a 1.5 mm corner radius, and a 13 mm length of cut, making it well suited for both roughing and finishing operations in a single setup. With 3 right-hand spiral flutes and a 36-degree medium helix, it promotes efficient chip evacuation and stable cutting performance. The bright, uncoated finish maintains tight dimensional tolerances without added coating thickness. This end mill is single-end and centercutting, allowing plunge entry as well as peripheral cuts.

This end mill is intended for use with standard straight-cylindrical toolholders in CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and similar equipment. Its short flute length and normal pitch geometry make it effective in applications requiring controlled material removal in aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous materials. The 6 mm straight shank fits common collet and shrink-fit toolholder systems used in production and job-shop environments. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals performing contouring, profiling, or slotting operations on non-ferrous workpieces will find this a direct fit for short-reach applications.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in non-ferrous metal cutting
• 1.5 mm corner radius reduces stress concentration and extends tool life at cut transitions
• 3 right-hand spiral flutes with 36-degree medium helix for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilling
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains precise diameter tolerance of +0.000 / -0.013 mm
• Suitable for both roughing and finishing in a single tool pass

Compatibility

Designed for use with straight-cylindrical toolholders. Primary workpiece material is non-ferrous metal. Series 138 short-length corner radius end mill platform.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by qualified machinists with the machine powered down and spindle locked. Ensure the toolholder bore and shank are clean and free of chips or debris before seating the end mill. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque specifications for set-screw or collet nut retention. Confirm runout is within acceptable limits before beginning a cut to protect both the tool and the workpiece.
