2-flute Carbide Down-cut End-mills (MD208) - 1/8 in. (0.125 in.) shank

Think & Tinker 2-flute downcut end-mills feature a high radial flute-rake optimized to minimize the formation of fraying or splintering in balsa, softwoods, plywood and laminates. These changes result in bits with improved cutting properties in a wider range of materials. Our tools are routinely used for contouring and sound-hole cutting in hollow-body acoustic musical instruments.

Manufactured in the USA, every tool is:

  • 100% measured / optically inspected to insure that EVERY tool meets, or exceeds, our published specifications
  • available with depth rings precisely positioned to ±0.004 in. (0.10mm), virtually eliminating the need for resetting Z-axis zero in many applications)
  • made from premium grade submicrograin tungsten carbide (HRa: 93, TRS: 4.0GPa )

This attention to detail and the use of top quality materials result in tools with dependable cutting characteristics and one of the longest tool lives in the market. Combined with comprehensive customer support, our cutters have become the tools of choice for sign makers, model makers, artists and instrument builders around the world.
