0.0197" / 0.50mm Stub Length 2-Flute Square End Mill, .030" LOC M105st

0.0197" / 0.50mm stub-length 2-flute square-end carbide end mill with .030" LOC and standard 1/8" shank.

This micro carbide end mill is designed for precision CNC machining where small features, fine detail milling, and narrow slots are required. The short .030" LOC provides a more rigid cutting section than longer-reach tools, helping reduce deflection in delicate micro-machining work.

The 2-flute square-end geometry is useful for slotting, profiling, engraving, and flat-bottom detail cuts in appropriate materials.

Common Applications

• Micro CNC milling
• Fine engraving and detail cutting
• Small slots, pockets, and contours
• PCB milling and routing
• Plastic, acrylic, wood, composites, and suitable non-ferrous materials

Benefits

• Stub-length cutting section helps reduce tool deflection
• 2-flute design balances chip clearance and cutting strength
• Square-end geometry for slots, pockets, profiles, and flat-bottom cuts
• Small 0.50mm diameter for fine-detail machining
• Standard 1/8" shank fits many compact CNC routers and precision collet setups

Specifications

Stub-length note: Stub-length end mills use a shorter cutting section to improve rigidity and reduce deflection. They are a good choice when the cutting depth is shallow and accuracy is more important than reach.
