Gws 101034 Square End Mill 1 in 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The GWS 101034 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for high-performance material removal in demanding machining applications. Built to the Alumigator Series 1026 specification, this single-end tool features a 1-inch cutting diameter, a 1-1/4-inch length of cut, and a 37-degree helix angle optimized for chip evacuation and surface finish quality. The submicron carbide grade delivers hardness and wear resistance suited to aggressive feed rates. The bright/uncoated finish makes it well-suited for non-ferrous materials, particularly aluminum. Machinists and CNC operators in job shops, production facilities, and aerospace environments install and run this tool on vertical and horizontal machining centers.

This end mill is configured for right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction with an upcut flute geometry. The extended reach design, with a 3-3/8-inch reach length and a 6-inch overall length, allows access to deeper pockets and stepped features without requiring a longer tool holder. The 1-inch shank diameter provides a rigid interface with standard ER and Weldon-style holders. It is a single-end tool intended for use in production and prototype milling of aluminum and other non-ferrous metals where chip clearance and finish are priorities.

Key Features

• Solid submicron carbide construction for superior hardness and extended tool life
• 37-degree helix angle promotes aggressive chip evacuation, ideal for non-ferrous machining
• Extended reach with 3-3/8-inch reach length and 6-inch overall length for deep pocket access
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute with upcut geometry for clean material removal
• Bright/uncoated finish optimized for aluminum and other non-ferrous alloys
• Centercutting capability allows plunge and ramp entry operations

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 1-inch shank diameter. Suited for milling aluminum and non-ferrous metals as part of the Alumigator Series 1026 product line.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before tool changes. Secure the 1-inch shank in a properly sized and torqued tool holder per the machine manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, and confirm cutting parameters are appropriate for the workpiece material and setup rigidity.
