Ball Nose End Mills 2 Flutes Tungsten Carbide Milling Cutter CNC Router Bit Tool Ball End Mill R Cutter

Product Description

A 2-flute ball nose end mill for CNC routers and milling machines, used for 3D contouring and curved surface work. It is made of tungsten carbide, silver in colour, with a 60mm outer diameter and lengths from 38mm to 100mm. The R0.5~R6 range covers radius cutters from R0.5 to R6. Confirm your spindle collet size and the radius you need against that range before ordering. Customisation is supported and shipment is by DHL, FedEx or UPS.

Blunt or single-flute cutters leave torn grain and visible step-over marks on curved work. On a 3D carving job, that means sanding back every contour by hand. A 2-flute ball nose end mill gives you a rounded cutting edge that follows the curve instead of chipping across it, so the surface comes off the machine closer to finish.

This is an R cutter, also called a radius cutter, with a ball end and two flutes. Tungsten carbide body, silver finish, 60mm outer diameter, and overall lengths from 38mm to 100mm. It fits CNC routers and milling machines.

Mount it like any collet tool: clean the collet and nut, seat the shank to the depth your holder allows, and tighten. The ball end lets you cut circular grooves, semi-circular grooves and curved surfaces without a sharp corner digging in.

Customisation is supported; send the radius, length and shank size you need. Shipment is by DHL, FedEx or UPS. With an enquiry, include the material you are cutting, the radius from R0.5~R6, the overall length within 38~100mm, and your collet size.

The 2-flute geometry clears chips from deep 3D passes, which reduces recutting and heat at the ball tip. On MDF and solid wood, that means fewer burn marks and less sanding after the curve is cut.

Product Features

What the specification fixes, and what it leaves to the machine:

• Curved surface finishing — The ball nose tip follows curved surfaces without a sharp corner, so 3D profiling and contouring leave a smoother surface on wood, MDF and acrylic.
• Chip clearance on deep cuts — Two flutes move chips out of the cut faster than a single flute, which helps on deep 3D passes where recutting would otherwise slow the job.
• Radius range for job matching — The R0.5~R6 range covers radius cutters from R0.5 to R6, so you can pick the tip radius that matches the detail in your drawing.
• Length range for reach — Overall lengths run from 38mm to 100mm, letting you choose a shorter tool for rigidity or a longer one for deeper cavities.
• Carbide wear point — Tungsten carbide holds the ball tip edge on abrasive MDF and plywood, where softer tool steel would round over and start tearing grain.
• Groove cutting — The ball end cuts circular grooves and semi-circular grooves in one pass, useful for fluting, drainage channels and decorative profiles.
• Collet fit check — The 60mm outer diameter and shank must match your collet; check the holder size before ordering so the tool seats correctly.

Product Advantages

What changes on the shop floor when the right part goes back in:

• Fewer sanding hours after 3D carving. A ball nose tip leaves a rounded contour instead of a stepped edge, so curved work comes off the machine closer to finish and needs less hand sanding.
• Chips clear instead of recutting. Two flutes lift chips out of the cut on deep passes, which reduces heat at the tip and helps hold the edge on long 3D profiling runs.
• One tool for grooves and contours. The same R cutter handles circular grooves, semi-circular grooves and curved surfaces, so you change tools less often between operations.
• Radius matched to the drawing. With R0.5~R6 to choose from, you can pick the tip radius that matches the detail, instead of forcing one cutter across every job.
• Reach matched to the cavity. Lengths from 38mm to 100mm let you use a short, rigid tool on shallow work and a longer tool where the cavity needs the reach.
• Carbide holds the edge on abrasive stock. Tungsten carbide resists the wear that MDF and plywood cause, so the ball tip keeps its shape longer than a softer cutter would.

Frequently Asked Questions

What radius do I need for my job?

Pick the radius from the R0.5~R6 range that matches the smallest detail in your drawing. A smaller radius reaches into tighter contours, while a larger one covers more surface per pass.

Will it fit my CNC router collet?

Check your collet size against the shank before ordering. The 60mm outer diameter and the shank must match your holder, so confirm the holder size first.

What length should I order?

Choose the shortest length from 38mm to 100mm that still reaches the bottom of your cavity. A shorter tool is more rigid, while a longer one gives the reach for deep work.

Can it cut aluminium?

It is a tungsten carbide cutter with two flutes, so it can be used on aluminium and other non-ferrous materials as well as wood, MDF and acrylic. Set feeds and speeds for the material.

Is it good for 3D carving?

Yes. The ball nose design follows curved surfaces without a sharp corner, which makes it suitable for 3D profiling, curved engraving and contouring work.

Can you make a custom radius?

Customisation is supported. Send the radius you need within R0.5~R6, the overall length within 38~100mm, and your shank size with the enquiry.

How is it shipped?

Shipment is by DHL, FedEx or UPS. Tell the supplier which carrier suits your receiving schedule when you enquire.

What should I send with my enquiry?

Send the material you are cutting, the radius from R0.5~R6, the overall length within 38~100mm, and your collet size. That lets the supplier match the tool to your machine.
