I've always seen them as shell mills in catalogs when one goes to purchase them, at least here in America. Perhaps the edit should reflect both names, for the sake of international completeness?
The rpm formulas don't seem to match the formulas on the cutting speed page.
From the article:
- Helix angle: The flutes of a milling cutter are almost always helical. If the flutes were straight, the whole tooth would impact the material at once, causing vibration and reducing accuracy and surface quality. Setting the flutes at an angle allows the tooth to enter the material gradually, reducing vibration. Typically, finishing cutters have a higher rake angle (tighter helix) to give a better finish.
I'm confused here. Isn't a reamer basically a milling cutter in which the flutes are straight? And, isn't a reamer used to add surface quality to a hole? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.45.0.133 (talk) 05:19, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

I removed a duplicate image of a shell end mill. There is still one copy in the article. It isn't very good as the picture shows rectangular inserts but usually they are triangular or lozenge shaped. Stub Mandrel (talk) 16:03, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
