Choosing the right end mill is a must for any serious machining work. Having the correct end mill helps to determine the quality, accuracy, and time of a finished part. Investing in a premium cnc end mill at the beginning can save money in the long run, by completing jobs quicker and being tolerant to more abuse.
We have searched high and low for a quality supplier at affordable prices. Our square end mills are manufactured from sub-micron grain solid carbide using the latest material technology. They are 2 flute up-cut square end mills, and range in sizes from 1/4” to 1/64”, so even them high detailed jobs are now possible.
Choosing the end mill for you
Each size end mill is available in 3 versions, standard length, stub length, and extended reach. The longer a mill sticks out from the router, the less accurate it will be, so stub lengths are useful when you need to complete highly accurate shallow work. Extended reach end mills are for them deep machining jobs, they are longer than the standard length mills, so hence will deflect more. Standard length are for general machining applications and will be suitable for most machining jobs. See the table below for a full size comparison.
Stub | Standard | Extended Reach | ||||||
Cut Diameter (D) | Shank Diameter (d) | Cut Length (L) | Bit Length (BL) | Cut Length (L) | Bit Length (BL) | Cut Length (L) | Bit Length (BL) | Reach (R) |
1/4″ (6.35mm) | 1/4″ (6.35mm) | 0.375″ (9.525mm) | 5/2″ (63.5mm) | 1/2″ (12.7mm) | 5/2″ (63.5mm) | 3/4″ (19.05mm) | 5/2″ (63.5mm) | 3/4″ (19.05mm) |
1/8″ (3.175mm) | 1/8″ (3.175mm) | 0.188″ (4.7752mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.375″ (9.525mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.375″ (9.525mm) | 2.0″ (50.8mm) | 0.590″ (14.986mm) |
1/16″ (1.5875mm) | 1/8″ (3.175mm) | 0.094″ (2.3876mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.188″ (4.7752mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.188″ (4.7752mm) | 2.0″ (50.8mm) | 0.590″ (14.986mm) |
1/32″ (0.79375mm) | 1/8″ (3.175mm) | 0.047″ (1.1938mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.094″ (2.3876mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.094″ (2.3876mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.315″ (8.001mm) |
1/64″ (0.396875mm) | 1/8″ (3.175mm) | 0.023″ (0.5842mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.047″ (1.1938mm) | 3/2″ (38.1mm) | 0.047″ (1.1938mm) | 3/2″ (38.10mm) | 0.12″ (3.048mm) |
See the diagram below to correlate the dimensions. The dimension Reach is only applicable to the extended reach end mills, as for the stub and standard end mills the reach is the same as the cut length. Also if the Cut Diameter and the Shank Diameter are the same then the Reach dimension also isn’t of much concern, even for the extended reach end mills.

The end mill itself is fine. but, why does oozenest mail such a tiny item out in such huge cardboard packaging. it could easily go in a small padded envelope (it is already protected in a small case) and oozenest could use the savings on packaging and postage to reduce the price to the customer!

Excellent
Stuart Davey (verified owner) –
Very good product. i use it with my cnc router for cutting thin sheet products such as balsa and ply (up to 3mm). the mills seem to last. the cut they make is so fine and true it’s like cutting with a laser but without its smell and risk of iminent blindness!

Excellent tool product
David Quinn (verified owner) –
Good cutter works well
Stuart Davey (verified owner) –
Excellent product, at 1/64 inch (0.4mm) it should make people think twice before buying a laser if all they want to do is cut out thin material.

This is my first endmill and it’s done the job it’s intended for. only used for spoiler board tee nut inserts so far but had no issues. good price for beginner endmill.

All good – quickly delivered.

Cab’t rate the quality as haven’t used it yet, but looks and seems a quality bit. ideal for what i needed. be careful when ordering the size you need, as i learnt the ‘standard’ is actually quite small, so it had to be returned.
