This CNC end mill set from Baikal Tools is an excellent choice for hobbyists and professionals who need a solid set of end mills. The CNC end mill set comes with eight size options, from 2 to 12mm. The size 4 and 6mm end mills have 2 flute and 4 flute cutting heads, respectively, and 4 of the 8 size end mills have straight shanks, while the other four have 1/8-inch shanks. The straight shanks are great for routing, while the 1/8-inch shanks are better suited for milling. The cutters are 4 flute, which is a little thicker than the standard 3 flute, so they'll last longer. The cutters are carbide, so they're durable, and carbide cutters are more resistant to heat than steel. The cutters also feature an undercut, so chips will be ejected out of the cutter rather than leaving chips on the cutter, which dulls the cutting edge. Each of the cutters is 3-7/8 inches long, so they're long enough to handle most jobs. The cutters have excellent cutting performance, and they produce a smooth, sharp edge. The cutters are sharp enough that they cut through a 3/8-inch-thick aluminum sheet with ease.
