Standard Carbide End mills
• WHEN to choose a Primate?– Solid tooling choice when it’s just
about price per tool–When a standard product is already
being utilized

WHATis a Gorilla Mill?
• Trying to make a better end mill to compete.• Started spreading virally, realized potential.• Won’t rest, constantly improving.• The marketplace is overwhelmed with
variable helix end mills. • Gorilla Mills® will reduce chatter, decrease
cycle times, extend tool life and create a superior finish.
WHYthe Gorilla Mill is
better.
There are 4 reasons
VARIABLE HELIX• CNC is too perfect, sets up
vibrations/harmonics that create chatter.• Our design ensures nothing meets at 90°• We do everything possible to break up
that perfection• Patented: US Pat. 7,153,067 & 7,367,754
#1
• Best in the world• Sub micron 10% ultra fine grade• Ultra-high transverse rupture
strength
SUBSTRATE
#2
GMP ? PROCESS
WITHOUT GMP#3• Reaction of carbide and diamond• Without GMP while it first runs:– micro fractures, removal of the coating
• Old school: take apenny & run alongedge
GMP
#3
WITH GMP#3• We hone GMP on CNC in a controlled
environment• Micro teeth are removed that create the
fracture points & produces a more suitable surface for GMX-35 coating to adhere
• AlTiN on• 1650° F working
temperature• Always runs better on
coolant but will run without
