    4" oal 1/4" shaft cnc end mills anywhere?

    I am trying to find 2-3 flute 4" oal 1/4" end mills and I'm not finding any. Anyone have a reputable source? My machine runs about 320ipm. I am cutting hardwood by the way.

    bonus points if any finds 1/8" as well but with 1/4" shaft

    Google long endmills

    You can get them in even crazy long lengths, many vendors available.

    Lots of combinations of OAL and cutting lengths.

    Harvey Tool has just about anything you could want.

    Thanks, harvey tool had one of the bits but I realized that you can just ask a distributor to request a longer version.

    I'm curious to know if you've been able to cut at that rate in hardwood with the cutter fully extended? Or are you just cleaning up the cut.
