It seems to be good. for end mills

Can't tell how well it mills aluminum or steel but it worked perfectly on polymer. If you are milling resin, this end mill will get the job done and do it well.

Pros
  • Milling accessories
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared

made in China - milling accessories

These 3 words are synonymous with scrap. I used this end mill for about 30 minutes before it split down the middle. Amazon is great for replacing it with another one, but I'd rather pay a little more for 1 good one than 2 pieces of chinese junk. They weren't the cheapest beats on Amazon, but when they arrived and I saw they were made in China, I had reservations. then when it split down the middle I realized they were well grounded.

Pros
  • cutting tools
Cons
  • so far so good

Not the end of the mill.

I have this carbide end mill to cut a sheet aluminum box for an IEC AC outlet. I used a bit in a drill press and was able to cut through the box in a few passes. The beat did what it was supposed to do. I would not recommend using a drill press for precision work. The drill is not designed for horizontal force, but for vertical force. The chisel was delivered via Revain Prime within two days of ordering.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • Crumpled
