Product Overview
Metric aluminum work needs its own dedicated cutter, and the M5401-S fills that role at 3mm diameter. This 3-flute square end mill comes from the Ferocious 3x 5300 Series, built for non-ferrous machining where clean chip movement, fast cutting, and a smooth finish all matter.
ZrN coating supports cleaner cutting in aluminum-style applications, while the variable helix, variable pitch, and wiper end geometry help reduce chatter and improve surface finish. It's a strong small-diameter option for aluminum, copper, brass, plastics, composites, and other non-ferrous materials.
