MILL M9-234X00-0080 Carbide End Mill X-MILL 230, 8 mm Cutting Diameter, 2 Flutes, Uncoated

For machinists who demand clean cuts and dependable tool life, the X-MILL 230 series from MILL delivers uncompromising solid carbide construction and precision-ground geometry. This 8 mm end mill with a 20 mm cutting length and 58 mm overall length handles slotting, peripheral milling, and plunging in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals without chatter, thanks to its 30° helix and center-cutting sharp corners.

Highlights

• Solid carbide (VHM) body for exceptional rigidity and wear resistance
• 2-flute design optimised for chip evacuation in universal machining
• Cylindrical shank with h6 tolerance for secure, concentric clamping
• Uncoated bright finish ideal for a wide range of workpiece materials
• DIN 6527 K standard ensures consistent quality and interchangeability

In daily use

Set up the tool in a collet chuck or hydraulic holder, and you will immediately notice the smooth entry and low cutting forces. The sharp corner geometry produces crisp 90° shoulders, while the 30° helix angle balances cutting pressure and chip flow. Whether roughing or finishing, the end mill maintains dimensional accuracy with a cutting diameter tolerance of h10, reducing the need for secondary operations.
