1/2" Spoon Cutter - Center Cut. Single End with 60 Degree Helix. Shank OD 1/2" - LOC 1-1/4" - OAL 3" - 3 Flutes for High-speed Finishing. ZrN Coated

1/2" Spoon Cutter, center cutting, single end, 60° helix, 3 flutes, ZrN Coated.

A spoon cutter is a center-cutting single-end mill with a gashed, spoon-shaped end, so it can plunge straight into the material and then feed sideways without a pilot hole. This one is ground from solid carbide and cuts 1/2" diameter on a 1/2" shank, with 1-1/4" of flute and 3" overall.

Ground for finishing passes: light radial engagement at high spindle speed, where the shear angle and flute polish do more for the surface than raw depth of cut.

The ZrN (zirconium nitride) coating is a low-friction, non-ferrous coating: it resists built-up edge on aluminium and similar alloys while keeping the edge close to sharp.
