The Vortex End Mill is a high-performance carbide cutting tool designed for precision milling in hard materials. With a 20 mm diameter, a 3-flute center-cut design, and a TiSiN coating, it’s built for durability and versatile use in demanding applications up to 55 HRC.

• Diameter: 20 mm
• Flute Count: 3-flute design for efficient chip evacuation and balanced load
• Center Cutting: Yes — enables plunge milling and contouring without retracting the tool
• Helix Angle: 30° for improved stability, reduced deflection, and smoother finishes
• Coating: TiSiN for enhanced hardness, wear resistance, and lubricity
• Material: Solid carbide precision end mill for rigidity and long tool life
• Maximum Workpiece Hardness: Suitable for materials up to 55 HRC

In practical use, this end mill excels when cutting hardened steels, die steels, and high-strength alloys. The 3-flute geometry promotes rapid chip removal, helping maintain cooler cutting temperatures and steady cutting performance. The 30° helix minimizes tool deflection and chatter, yielding cleaner surfaces and tighter tolerances even at higher feed rates. TiSiN coating adds an extra layer of protection against wear, extending tool life in demanding cuts and reducing downtime due to tool changes. Thanks to its center-cutting capability, you can plunge into pockets or start profiles directly, making it a reliable choice for precision milling, pocketing, and contour work on hard materials.
