Built on the Alumigator Series 1026 platform, it features a 37-degree helix angle with an upcut, right-hand flute geometry that promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces built-up edge. The cutting diameter is 0.1875 inches with a matching 0.1875-inch shank diameter and a 3-inch overall length. The submicron carbide grade delivers rigidity and wear resistance at elevated feed rates. This tool ships bright and uncoated, which is standard for aluminum-optimized end mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills where precision slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling of aluminum, brass, copper, and other soft non-ferrous alloys are required. The extended reach design, with a 1.5-inch reach length, makes it useful for accessing deeper features or stepped pockets without a tool change. The center-cutting capability allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece. Typical users include CNC machinists, toolmakers, and production shops running aluminum components in aerospace, automotive, and general manufacturing environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute upcut geometry optimized for chip evacuation in aluminum and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e37-degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSubmicron solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended reach with 1.5-inch reach length for deeper pocket access\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish  -  standard for aluminum applications where coatings can cause material adhesion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of the GWS Alumigator Series 1026, designed for use in aluminum and soft non-ferrous milling applications.

Use a calibrated torque wrench and appropriate collet or end mill holder to secure the shank  -  refer to the toolholder manufacturer's specifications for clamping torque. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before running at full feed and speed. Follow applicable OSHA machine guarding and PPE requirements when operating CNC or manual milling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Submicron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Upcut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.17 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1026 Alumigator\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GWS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 101024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972212916530,"sku":"101024","price":77.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ff7dcd4f68f36ce4f5006367b435e678_724e80b5-6f68-44eb-a788-e06ca9bffc92.jpg?v=1789964593","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gws-101024-square-end-mill-3-flute-solid-carbide-3-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
