Description of Drill America Speed Steel Single

High-speed steel tools are good for most general purpose applications, offering a combination of hardness and toughness for wear resistance. Available in polished finish. Weldon shanks feature a round shank with one of more flats machined into the side for easy indexing and alignment. When run in a counterclockwise direction (right-hand cut) spiral fluted tools evacuate chips up and out of the cut to reduce clogging. Designed to machine most materials of medium hardness such as steel, brass, bronze and iron.

Fast delivery: end mill

It came VERY quickly, but it turned out that the shank and the bit are different sizes (not mentioned in any comments from the seller) and the length of the bit is quite short.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • without machine

Proven best router bits

Fast shipping, this 4 tooth end mill is well priced and cuts through aluminum like butter. It has proven itself very well in continuous use over the past month.

Pros
  • Highly rated by testers for grip and durability
Cons
  • A few little things

Double End Mill

They appear to be quite sharp and well built. Mine were used to work with steel cases. So far they are doing their job with no problems. And if one end breaks, flip it! I'm happy with these beats.

Pros
  • Sleek Design
Cons
  • Compatibility

False advertising of end mills

The product I received did NOT match the description in the ad. It says it's a center cutter and I NEED it to be centered, but I have a NON-CENTER cutter. Very dissatisfied and can't find a way to report this as a misadvertised product so I'm submitting this for review.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Transparency

You get what you pay for.

Torma Cutting Aluminum 1100 m, 40 ipm, 5000 rpm Depth of cut 0.07 in. Blowing chips with compressed air. When you use this end mill for the first time. About 10 minutes after the first operation. This end mill is clogged. I'm not a pro, but I've had much better results with LakeshoreCarbide and Onsrud. I personally don't think I'll be buying cheap Revain end mills.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Interchangeable

NOT center cut. Anyway, I don't recommend it.

This end mill is definitely NOT a center cut, although the description says "center cut end mill type". It seems to be a good quality end mill but I haven't used it yet and it will be some time before I will; therefore 3 stars. Addendum: I was finally able to try this end mill and am totally disappointed. I can easily get a .100 cut on my hobby router, but with this end mill I can barely get .010 at less than half the feed due to vibration. This is not chatter, but a vibration that weakens even

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
