SPS Super Python — 4 Flute Variable Helix Stub Length Tuffy Grade Carbide End Mill
RobbJack SPS Super Python Series — Tuffy-grade carbide that strikes harder and cuts faster. Variable-helix, all-center-cutting geometry for aggressive metal removal in stainless, super alloys, Inconel, titanium and steel to 40 HRc. 1-in Dia 4-Flute End Mill, 1.25-in LOC, 1-in Shank, 4-in OAL, 0.03 CR


The Super Python: RobbJack's flagship variable-helix, all-center-cutting Tuffy grade end mills — up to 1031% more metal removed per minute in Inconel 718.
- Variable-helix, all-center-cutting geometry in Tuffy grade carbide, AlTiN coated — built to take the most aggressive cuts in the toughest materials
- Materials: stainless, super alloys, Inconel, titanium, cast iron, and steels to 40 HRc
- Headline result: 1031% more metal removed per minute in an Inconel 718 full slot — 0.130 in³/min in one pass vs 0.0127 in³/min for a typical high-performance tool (1/4" tool demonstration)
- 4 flute (SPS-401 stub, SPS-403 standard, SPS-405 extended) and 5 flute (SPS-501, SPS-503, SPS-505) versions, 1/4"–1" cutting diameter
- Flute lengths from 1/2" (1/4" stub) up to 2-5/8" on 5" OAL standard-length 1" tools
- Seven standard corner radii per diameter (e.g. .010"–.190" on catalog sizes) plus ball-end (-BN) versions
- Optional flats (-FL) for high-torque tool holding
- Applications: slotting, side milling, helical interpolation, ramping, high-performance roughing, semi-finishing, and finishing — dry, wet, cold air, or spray mist
- Every part number stocked and made in the USA
