Product Overview
Tough,production milling really wants the full Storm treatment, and the 3018 delivers it at a 1/2" diameter, so yeah it’s doing the thing. This 3-flute square end mill is part of the Storm 3000 Series , it’s built for handling higher chip loads, more forceful cutting, and those demanding materials that chew up lesser tools.
The Storm layout uses a 60° high helix, a heavy core, and an eccentric relief, so the tool stays more rugged while you’re in rough machining situations. With a 1" length of cut, and a 3" overall length, the 3018 is a solid pick for steels, stainless, cast iron, titanium, various alloys, Inconel, plus select non-ferrous materials too.
