1/4" Compression End MillTungsten Carbide • Nano Blue Coated OverviewBuilt for clean, chip-free edges on both the top and bottom of sheet goods. The compression geometry combines u p-cut and down-cut flutes to pull fibers inward and reduce tear-out, making it ideal for plywood, laminates, and veneered materials on spindle-driven CNC machines. Best For Plywood MDF Laminated sheet goods Veneered panels Why Choose It Clean top and bottom edges in one pass Great for sheet goods and laminates Nano Blue coating reduces heat and friction Stable cutting at higher spindle RPMs Starting ParametersConservative starting values for spindle-driven CNC machines. Spindle: 16,000–18,000 RPM Feed: 120–180 IPM Plunge: 40–60 IPM Cut Strategy: Run deep enough to fully engage the compression zone Specifications Tool Type: Compression End Mill Flutes: 2 Cutting Diameter: 1/4" Cutting Length: 1.5" Shank Diameter: 1/4" Overall Length: 2.75" Material: Tungsten Carbide Coating: Nano Blue Notes Best performance comes at full or near-full material thickness Shallow passes will not produce clean edges on both faces Proper dust collection improves cut quality and tool life Show more
