About this series
MSR-2 Metric Tuffy Grade Miniature End Mills
Metric standard-length miniatures for added reach
The MSR-2 is the metric version of the SR-2 standard-length, 2-flute, square-end Tuffy Grade miniature end mill, with longer flute lengths than the MSS-2 stub for deeper features. Cutting diameters range from .25 mm to 1.50 mm on a 3 mm shank with 38 mm overall length. Ball-end (MSR-2BN) and 4-flute (MSR-4) standard-length variants are also offered.
- 2 flute, square end
- 30 degree helix
- Standard length
- 3 mm shank, 38 mm OAL
- Tight tolerances
- Cutting Dia. tolerance +/-.010 mm
Available uncoated and in TiN, TiCN, AlTiN, and Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coatings

Recommendations are computed starting points based on typical conditions — not guarantees of performance, tool life, or fitness for your application. Machining involves inherent risk: you are solely responsible for safe operation, for verifying every parameter against your machine, spindle, toolholding, workholding, and guarding limits, and for proving all parameters on a test cut before production. RobbJack Corporation assumes no liability for tool breakage, machine damage, scrapped parts, production loss, or personal injury arising from use of these recommendations.
