Milling cutters are usually made of high-speed steel
• The pitch refers to the angular distance between like or
adjacent teeth.
• The pitch is determined by the number of teeth. The tooth face
is the forward facing surface of the tooth that forms the cutting
edge.
• The land is the narrow surface behind the cutting edge on each
tooth.
• The rake angle is the angle formed between the face of the
tooth and the centerline of the cutter.
• The primary clearance angle is the angle of the land of each
tooth measured from a line tangent to the centerline of the
cutter at the cutting edge.
• This angle defines the land of each tooth and provides
additional clearance for passage of cutting oil and chips.
• The hole diameter determines the size of the arbor necessary
to mount the milling cutter.
The point angle, or the angle formed at
the tip of the drill, is determined by the
material the drill will be operating in.
Harder materials require a larger point
angle, and softer materials require a
sharper angle.
