Somta Somta Series 340 - 5.0 mm HSS-Co8e 2 Flute Ball Nose End Mill

Somta Series 340 – 5.0 mm HSS-Co8e Ball Nose End Mill (2 Flute) | 3400500

The SOMTA 3400500 is a precision 2-flute ball nose end mill designed for contouring, slotting, and radius milling. Manufactured from premium HSS-Co8e (8% cobalt high-speed steel), it offers outstanding thermal stability, wear resistance, and tool life. The ball nose geometry produces smooth radius transitions, ideal for 3D profiling and finishing applications on steel, aluminium, and general-purpose materials.

• HSS-Co8e Material – Delivers superior hardness and durability under high cutting temperatures.
• 2-Flute Ball Nose Design – Ensures effective chip evacuation and precision contouring.
• Centre-Cutting Capability – Allows direct plunging and slot entry without pilot holes.
• Optional TiAlN Coating – Increases wear and oxidation resistance in high-speed applications.
• DIN 327 Standard – Provides consistency and dimensional accuracy.
