The Europa Tools HSS Co5 End Mill is a precision aluminium milling tool designed for profiling and slotting on routers and compact CNC systems. Built for machinists and makers working with aluminum, it delivers clean cuts, reliable durability, and efficient chip evacuation with every pass. Diameter: 3 mm Flutes: 1 flute for efficient chip clearance and reduced cutting forces Shank: Plain shank for secure siting in standard collets Length: Short length provides added rigidity and precise control Material: High-speed steel with cobalt (Co5) for superior heat and wear resistance Applications: Optimized for aluminium profiling and slotting Geometry: Optimized flute geometry supports smooth cutting and consistent finishes This end mill’s single-flute design minimizes vibration and allows rapid material removal in aluminium, while the Co5 alloy enhances durability under high-speed machining. The short, rigid form reduces deflection, making it ideal for precise contouring and pocketing in thin-walled aluminium workpieces. Its plain shank ensures compatibility with a wide range of holders and collets, giving you a versatile tool for both lightweight fabrication and intricate prototypes.
