MZG Fillet End Mill System

Fillet End Mills, also commonly known as Corner Radius End Mills, Round Angle End Mills , or Radius End Mills , represent a critical and versatile category of cutting tools used in modern CNC milling operations. Distinguished from standard square end mills by their unique geometry, the sharp 90-degree corners are replaced with a precise, rounded corner of a specific radius. This design modification provides significant advantages in tool strength, workpiece quality, and overall machining efficiency.

MZG Professional Fillet End Mill System

Enhanced Tool Strength and Durability

Corner radius design eliminates stress concentration points, distributing cutting forces evenly across a larger area for superior resistance to chipping and fracturing compared to sharp-cornered end mills.

Superior Wear Resistance

High-quality Tungsten Steel construction with advanced Nano Coating technology provides exceptional hardness, lubricity, and thermal barrier properties for extended tool life in demanding applications.

Improved Surface Finish

Creates precise filleted transitions between surfaces, eliminating sharp internal corners and producing superior surface quality while reducing stress risers in finished parts.

System Performance Analysis

The performance of MZG Fillet End Mills is meticulously engineered to overcome the inherent weaknesses of standard square end mills while offering enhanced machining capabilities. The fundamental purpose is derived from its signature corner radius design, which dramatically increases structural integrity by distributing cutting forces evenly across a larger area, eliminating the stress concentration points that make sharp corners highly susceptible to chipping.

Our Fillet End Mills are predominantly manufactured from high-quality Tungsten Steel (solid carbide), chosen for its exceptional hardness, high compressive strength, and ability to retain hardness at elevated temperatures. This material foundation ensures cutting edges remain sharp and effective even when machining tough, abrasive materials across hardness ranges from HRC45° to HRC65°.

Advanced Nano Coating technology further enhances performance through multi-layered PVD/CVD coatings that provide increased surface hardness beyond the carbide substrate, enhanced lubricity to reduce friction and heat generation, and thermal barrier protection for high-speed operations. This combination allows specialized machining of hardened tool steels and stainless steel materials.

The radius geometry creates corresponding fillets on workpieces, eliminating sharp internal corners that act as stress risers while producing visibly smoother, higher-quality surface finishes. This is crucial in applications like mold making and aerospace where surface integrity and part strength are paramount considerations.

Technical Specifications

Material & Construction

Solid Tungsten Carbide construction for exceptional hardness, compressive strength, and hot hardness retention. Available in 2-flute and 4-flute configurations. 2-flute offers excellent chip evacuation for slotting and softer materials, while 4-flute provides stable cutting action and finer surface finish for harder materials.

Corner Radius & Coating

Defining corner radius parameter (R) specified in millimeters (e.g., R0.2, R0.5, R1.0) based on part design requirements. Advanced PVD/CVD Nano Coating provides increased surface hardness, enhanced lubricity, and thermal barrier protection for materials up to HRC65.

Dimensional Parameters

Key specifications include d (Cutting Diameter), R (Corner Radius), H (Flute Length), L (Overall Length), and D (Shank Diameter). Standard nomenclature example: 4F55C-10R1.0 indicates 4-Flute, HRC55 Coated, 10mm diameter with 1.0mm corner radius.
