The Europa Tools ALU XP 16 mm Carbide End Mill is a high-performance cutting tool designed for aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. Built for precision machining, it delivers clean edges, reliable wear resistance, and consistent results across demanding milling tasks.

• Diameter: 16 mm
• Flutes: 3-flute carbide end mill
• Edge Geometry: Square edge for sharp, precise cuts
• Length: Standard length for stability and versatile reach
• Material: Solid carbide for rigidity and long tool life
• Coating: ALU XP optimized for high-speed aluminum milling
• Recommended Materials: Aluminum and other non-ferrous alloys
• Chip Evacuation: Balanced 3-flute design enhances chip clearance and cutting efficiency

This end mill is purpose-built to handle aluminum's unique machining challenges. The 3-flute design strikes a balance between aggressive material removal and smooth surface finish, while the Square Edge geometry delivers crisp corners and superior edge quality. The ALU XP coating reduces tool wear and heat buildup during high-speed cutting, extending tool life on repetitive aluminum milling cycles. With a standard length, you gain stable depth control and compatibility with a wide range of milling setups, making it a reliable choice for pocketing, profiling, and slotting in aluminum parts.
