Guhring 9030870031720 Square End Mill 0.125in 2 Flute

Product Description

The GUHRING 9030870031720 is a solid carbide square end mill from the Series 3087 line, designed for precision milling in demanding cutting applications. It features a 0.125 inch (1/8 inch) mill diameter, a 0.375 inch (3/8 inch) length of cut, and a 1.5 inch overall length. The tool carries a FIREX coating for enhanced wear resistance and heat performance at elevated cutting speeds. With a 30-degree helix angle and spiral flute geometry, it is built for efficient chip evacuation and consistent surface finish. This end mill is centercutting capable, allowing plunge entry in addition to peripheral and slot milling operations. It is installed by machinists and CNC operators working across a range of materials.

This end mill is suited for milling applications in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and certain high-temperature alloys. The primary workpiece material codes include K (cast iron), M (stainless steel), N (non-ferrous metals), and P (steel), with secondary compatibility noted for S (superalloys and heat-resistant materials). The 0.125 inch straight-cylindrical shank fits standard collets and tool holders used in CNC machining centers and manual mills. Its standard length profile makes it appropriate for general-purpose slotting, profiling, and pocketing at small diameters.

Key Features

• FIREX coating provides high heat resistance and extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions
• 30-degree helix angle with spiral flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting design allows plunge milling in addition to conventional peripheral cuts
• Solid carbide construction delivers rigidity and wear resistance at small diameters
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration for standard spindle rotation
• Mill diameter tolerance h10 and shank diameter tolerance h6 for precise tool holder fitment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide end mill for use in standard CNC machining centers and manual milling machines accepting a 0.125 inch straight-cylindrical shank. Compatible with workpiece materials coded K, M, N, P, and S per manufacturer designation.

Installation Notes

This end mill is installed by qualified machinists or CNC operators using appropriate collet chucks or end mill holders rated for the 0.125 inch shank diameter. Ensure the tool holder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank to maintain runout tolerances. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety codes when setting cutting parameters for solid carbide tooling at this diameter.
