DLC Roughing End Mill for Aluminum Overview
The 3-flute DLC roughing end mill for aluminum upgrades conventional aluminum roughing with low-friction DLC coating, serrated edges and reinforced core geometry for reduced adhesion, improved wear resistance and stable stock removal.
Cutting Geometry & Performance
Wave-edge teeth produce shorter chips, reduce cutting loads and improve roughing efficiency in aluminum machining.
DLC coating and sandblasting-polishing treatment improve surface smoothness, reduce aluminum adhesion and enhance chip evacuation. Up to 2× tool life compared with uncoated tools under comparable cutting conditions.
Micron-scale, ultra-fine grain tungsten carbide provides high rigidity, wear resistance and dimensional stability for demanding roughing operations.
Reinforced core geometry reduces vibration, while wide helical flutes improve chip evacuation and cutting stability.
