High-performance carbide ball end mills are designed to last longer and create a finer finish when used in their recommended, first-choice materials than general purpose ball end mills. They are used in production milling. Roughing/finishing end mills remove large amounts of material and create a smooth finish on the workpiece at the same time. Carbide end mills provide excellent wear resistance and heat resistance, and they are harder than high-speed steel or cobalt steel end mills. Ball end mills have a rounded nose that creates a round-bottomed groove in milling tasks. Also known as ball-nose end mills, they are rotated against a workpiece to make round-bottomed slots and pockets or mill complex shapes without sharp corners.

High-Performance Roughing/Finishing TiAlN-Coated Carbide Ball End Mills
Purchased productsThe TiAlN coating on these end mills withstands high temperatures and protects them from wear. It allows the end mills to be used at faster speeds than end mills with a bright finish, and it resists cracks and oxidation better than TiN or TiCN coatings.Brands
-
High-Performance Roughing/Finishing Bright Finish Carbide Ball End Mills
Purchased productsThe bright finish on these end mills provides a smooth, polished surface.Brands
-
High-Performance Roughing/Finishing WXS-Coated Carbide Ball End Mills
Purchased productsThe WXS coating on these end mills protects them from wear and provides maximum heat resistance when milling nickel-based alloys and hardened steels with a Rockwell hardness of more than 50 HRC. It is harder and has a higher oxidation temperature than a TiAlN coating.Brands
-
High-Performance Roughing/Finishing Diamond-Coated Carbide Ball End Mills
Purchased productsThe diamond coating on these end mills protects them from wear when milling abrasive materials. Diamond-coated end mills are only used for milling nonferrous materials such as aluminum, graphite, copper, and carbon fiber.Brands
-
High-Performance Roughing/Finishing EXO-Coated Carbide Ball End Mills
Purchased productsThe EXO coating on these end mills is a multilayered TiAlN coating with a very smooth finish. It resists wear better than a standard TiAlN coating. EXO-coated end mills can be used at high speeds and withstand high temperatures.Brands
-
High-Performance Roughing/Finishing WXL-Coated Carbide Ball End Mills
Purchased productsThe WXL coating on these end mills protects them from wear and is designed for milling nonferrous metals and steels with a Rockwell hardness of up to 50 HRC. It is harder and has a higher oxidation temperature than a TiAlN coating.Brands
