Guhring 9036770045000 Square End Mill 0.1772in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The GUHRING 9036770045000 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal cutting and machining applications. Part of the GUHRING Series 3677, this single-end tool features a 0.1772-inch (4.50 mm) cutting diameter, a 0.315-inch length of cut, and a 3-flute right-hand spiral configuration with a 30-degree helix angle. The FIREX coating improves wear resistance and thermal stability in demanding cutting conditions. With a matched 0.1772-inch shank diameter, this end mill seats directly into standard collet chucks and tool holders used in CNC machining centers and manual mills. It is installed and operated by machinists and tooling technicians working to close tolerances.

This end mill is suited for finish and semi-finish milling passes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a tight corner radius is required. The regular-length flute geometry and right-hand cut make it appropriate for conventional and climb milling in vertical and horizontal machining centers. The 3-flute design balances chip evacuation with surface finish quality, making it a practical choice for moderate-to-high feed rate operations in steel, stainless, aluminum, and similar materials. It is not center-cutting, so plunge entry is not recommended without a pilot hole or ramping entry strategy.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision metal cutting
• FIREX coating enhances thermal and oxidation resistance at elevated cutting temperatures
• 3-flute right-hand spiral with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Single-end, regular-length design for standard reach milling operations
• 0.1772-inch (4.50 mm) cutting diameter with matched shank for direct collet chucking
• Non-center-cutting geometry suited for peripheral and slot milling, not plunge entry

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide end mill for use in CNC machining centers, manual knee mills, and similar machine tools equipped with standard collet or end mill holders accepting a 0.1772-inch (4.50 mm) shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Power down and lock out the spindle before loading or unloading the tool from the holder. Ensure the shank is fully seated to the minimum engagement depth recommended for the collet or end mill holder in use. Because this tool is not center-cutting, avoid direct plunge moves into solid material without a pre-drilled hole or a ramping entry path programmed into the toolpath.
