DESCRIPTION

Product Detail：

This HRC55 2-flute carbide ball nose end mill is a versatile and robust tool designed for high-precision milling of hard materials. With its D8mm diameter and 60mm standard length, it offers an excellent balance of rigidity and cutting performance.

• Superior Rigidity and Stability: The standard 60mm length maximizes tool rigidity, which is crucial for achieving a superior surface finish and maintaining precision when machining materials up to HRC55.

• Precision Ball Nose Design: The D8mm ball nose tip is perfect for complex curved surface machining, arc slotting, and fine contouring, providing a smooth and precise finish on the workpiece.

• 2-Flute Structure for Smooth Chip Evacuation: The optimized 2-flute design provides ample chip space, preventing chip clogging and secondary cutting. This is essential for maintaining high efficiency and finish quality, especially in hard materials.

• Designed for High-Hardness Materials: Made from premium carbide, this tool is expertly tailored for materials with a hardness up to HRC55. It offers excellent wear resistance and thermal stability for reliable machining of hardened steel and mold steel.

CNC Inserts - Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I choose the right grade for my specific machining application?

Choosing the correct grade is crucial for tool life and performance. We provide a comprehensive Grade Cross-Reference Chart that maps our CD Carbide grades to major international brands like Sandvik, Mitsubishi, and Kyocera. If you are unsure, simply provide us with the workpiece material (P, M, K, S, H) and machining conditions, and our engineers will recommend the best solution.

2. Can you provide customized CNC tools based on our drawings?

Yes. As a factory-direct manufacturer, we specialize in bespoke engineering. Whether you need non-standard dimensions, specific chipbreakers, or customized coatings for unique alloys, our technical team can develop products based on your technical drawings (PDF/STEP) or physical samples.

3. Do you offer free samples for testing before bulk orders?

We understand that "trial cutting" is the only way to verify tool stability. We offer sample packs for professional buyers to test performance on their own CNC machines. Please contact our sales team with your machine specifications and the material you are processing to request your trial samples.

4. How do you ensure the quality consistency of your carbide inserts?

Our quality control is integrated into every step of the production process in Zhuzhou. We use high-purity tungsten carbide powder and advanced PVD/CVD coating equipment. Each batch undergoes rigorous inspection, including microscopic edge analysis and hardness testing, to ensure that the performance of the 1,000th insert is identical to the 1st.

5. What is the typical lead time for international B2B orders?

For standard models in stock (such as WNMG, CNMG, etc.), we usually ship within 3-5 business days. For customized tools or large-volume OEM orders, the production cycle typically ranges from 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and coating requirements.

6. Are you a manufacturer or a trading company?

We are a direct manufacturing enterprise based in Zhuzhou, the hunan of China’s tungsten carbide industry. By cutting out the middleman, we provide factory-direct pricing and faster technical support. This allows us to offer more flexible MOQs (Minimum Order Quantities) for small-to-medium-sized distributors and specialized machine shops.
