Built on the Series 1035 platform, it features a 3\/8 inch diameter cutting edge with a 5\/8 inch length of cut and five flutes ground to a variable 38-degree helix angle. The nACRo coating provides enhanced heat resistance and lubricity, allowing the tool to maintain edge integrity at elevated cutting speeds. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard. This end mill is used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling ferrous and non-ferrous alloys where chip evacuation and surface finish are critical. The five-flute geometry increases the number of cutting edges in contact, supporting higher feed rates compared to standard four-flute designs. The upcut flute type pulls chips away from the workpiece, reducing recutting. With a 3\/8 inch shank diameter and 2 inch overall length, it fits standard collets and end mill holders in vertical and horizontal machining centers as well as CNC milling machines. Extended reach is not a feature of this tool, making it best suited for standard-depth pockets and slots within the 5\/8 inch length-of-cut range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide submicron-grade substrate for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003enACRo coating for high-temperature performance and reduced friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute design supports higher feed rates versus 4-flute alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable 38-degree helix reduces harmonics and chatter during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand upcut flute direction for standard CNC setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare shank compatible with standard collet and end mill holder systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for standard 3\/8 inch collets and end mill holders used in CNC vertical machining centers, horizontal mills, and manual knee mills requiring a 3\/8 inch shank square end mill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Proper collet torque and tool stick-out should be set per the machine builder specifications to minimize runout. Verify that the selected speeds and feeds are appropriate for the workpiece material and coating type before initiating a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches (0.625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.375 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\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\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: nACRo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable 38 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Upcut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1035\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 120983\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51979544297778,"sku":"120983","price":113.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/65f04677bfdd18c08754079ed70f8d9e_78b1bfab-1f96-4968-914b-01d1e0640da1.jpg?v=1789980887","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gws-120983-square-end-mill-3-8-in-5-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
