Measuring 0.5 inches in diameter with a 1.25-inch length of cut and a 3-inch overall length, this single-end mill features four flutes with a 38-degree variable helix geometry. The variable helix reduces chatter and harmonic vibration, improving surface finish and tool life. Applied nACRo coating adds thermal resistance and lubricity, making this cutter well suited for demanding cutting environments. The submicron carbide grade provides the toughness and edge retention needed for consistent performance in production and job-shop settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is rated for use on a wide range of primary workpiece material codes including H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non-ferrous materials, general steels, and superalloys. The right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction suit standard CNC machining center spindles. The upcut flute type promotes efficient chip evacuation. Center-cutting capability allows for plunge entry as well as conventional peripheral and slot milling operations. This tool is a standard-length, non-extended-reach configuration, appropriate for most general milling applications on vertical and horizontal machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide submicron grade construction for edge retention and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e38-degree variable helix reduces vibration and chatter during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003enACRo coating provides thermal protection and extended tool life in difficult materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour right-hand upcut flutes for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eh6 shank diameter tolerance ensures consistent toolholder fit and runout control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S as designated in the supplier specifications.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Verify holder bore cleanliness and confirm the shank is seated to the minimum insertion depth recommended by the toolholder manufacturer. Do not exceed the tool's rated cutting parameters; consult the Series 1030 speed and feed guidelines provided by GWS for the target workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\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\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes, 38 degrees\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Upcut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1030\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Codes\u003c\/strong\u003e: H, K, M, N, P, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.36 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: 121515\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52121801523506,"sku":"121515","price":175.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5e70e369abc00eb2254b2f9b92185df7_379b7a49-fd70-4f5e-bd63-73ccebe5463b.jpg?v=1790084818","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gws-121515-square-end-mill-4-flute-solid-carbide-nacro","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
