Description
What Is a Double Angle Milling Cutter?
A Double Angle Milling Cutter is a disc-type milling cutter with cutting edges on two symmetrical angular faces. It is designed to machine both sides of a V-shaped or double-angle profile in a single pass.
The arbor-mounted design provides good rigidity and cutting stability for applications requiring accurate and repeatable angular profiles.
Typical applications include:
- V-grooving
- Dovetail milling
- Double-sided chamfering
- Angular slot milling
- Angular profile machining
- Symmetrical groove machining
Compared with single angle milling cutters, double angle cutters are designed for symmetrical profiles and can machine both angled surfaces simultaneously.
Why Choose Our Double Angle Milling Cutters?
Custom Cutting Geometry
Included angles, outside diameters, thicknesses, bore sizes and tooth geometries can be manufactured according to customer drawings or application requirements.
Multiple Material Options
HSS, HSS-Co, TCT and Solid Carbide options are available for different workpiece materials, cutter sizes and machining conditions.
Precision Grinding
CNC grinding is used to control cutter dimensions, angular geometry and tooth form for stable and repeatable production.
Flexible Production
We support prototype development, small batches and volume production for tool companies, distributors and industrial end users.
OEM & Private Label Manufacturing
OEM production, laser marking and private-label manufacturing are available according to customer requirements.
Material Options
We offer four main material options:
- HSS M2 – economical and tough for general-purpose milling.
- HSS-Co M35 – higher heat and wear resistance for more demanding machining.
- TCT – carbide-tipped construction with good wear resistance, particularly suitable for larger-diameter cutters.
- Solid Carbide – high rigidity and wear resistance for demanding and high-speed machining applications.
Material selection can be recommended according to the workpiece material, cutting conditions, cutter size and required tool life.

Single Angle vs Double Angle Milling Cutters
Double Angle Milling Cutters have cutting edges on both sides and are designed for symmetrical V-grooves, dovetail profiles and other double-angle machining operations.
Single Angle Milling Cutters have one angled cutting face and are mainly used for one-sided chamfering, beveling and angular machining.
The appropriate cutter depends on the required profile, machining operation and workpiece geometry.
FAQ
What is a double angle milling cutter used for?
It is mainly used for V-grooving, dovetail milling, chamfering, angular slotting and symmetrical angular profiles.
What is the difference between single and double angle milling cutters?
A single angle cutter is designed for one-sided angular machining, while a double angle cutter is designed to machine two symmetrical angled surfaces.
Which material is suitable for stainless steel?
HSS-Co M35 or Solid Carbide can be selected depending on the stainless steel grade, cutting conditions and required tool life.
