0.0236" (0.6mm) x 0.60mm LOC KTX-I Coated 2-Flute Ball Nose Carbide End Mill, 6mm Shank | K161

This 0.60mm 2-flute ball nose carbide end mill is manufactured by Kyocera from sub-micron grain solid carbide and features a KTX-I coating for precision milling in hardened steels and other difficult materials.

This tool is part of Kyocera’s 16HMS series, which is designed specifically for hard metal milling. The ball nose geometry makes it well suited for 3D contouring, fine profiling, and detailed finishing work in hardened materials.

With a 0.60mm cutting diameter, 0.30mm ball radius, and 20° helix angle, this micro end mill is built for precision machining where strength, control, and surface finish are critical. The KTX-I coating helps improve wear resistance and tool life in demanding applications.

This tool is manufactured by Kyocera and made in the USA.
