Review & Description

The Precision Twist EB6304G series of end mills are a extra length, ball nose, four flutes are made of carbide with a TiN finish is used for high speed machining of curved surfaces and best performance in steel and stainless steel.

The TiN finish is a gold-colored ceramic coating that combines hardness and low friction to extend cutting tool life and permit faster cutting speeds than with uncoated tools. You can be more productive and spend less time working. The extra length trades off rigidity for length, so you can work with thicker pieces of material or be able to reach out of the way locations.

Ball nose end mills have higher feed rates due to the smooth geometry of the cutting tip, which facilitates lower cutting forces, giving the cutter added strength under pressure. These qualities provide better performance and productivity, which means less time spent working. They can also produce radius in the bottom of slots or pockets for added strength (reduce stress concentrations).

End mills are tools with cutting teeth on the sides and on one (single ended) or both ends (doubled ended). The teeth may be parallel to the axis of rotation or helical, and commonly are called spiral end mills. The shape of the end might be square or round. Some end mills are center cutting, which allow for plunging into a work piece like a drill bit.

Together, the Precision and Dormer brands represent a new, streamlined organization that provides a strong North American tool brand for high productivity Carbide and HSS drill and tap products. Precision was founded in 1952 in Crystal Lake, Illinois. Dormer tools, was founded in 1913 in Sheffield, England, is known worldwide for innovative metalworking products.
