Built on the Series 2205 platform and finished with an AlCrO-MAX coating, it handles elevated cutting temperatures and abrasive workpiece materials with reduced tool wear. The 5\/8-inch diameter pairs with a matching 5\/8-inch shank, giving machinists a rigid, concentric setup suited for finishing and semi-finishing passes. A 38-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in CNC machining centers and manual mills for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations. The 1-5\/8-inch length of cut and 3-1\/2-inch overall length make it a practical choice for standard-depth cavities and contour work in mold, die, aerospace, and general metalworking applications. It is a single-end tool with a right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction, and it is center-cutting, allowing plunge entry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlCrO-MAX coating resists heat and oxidation for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute geometry increases feed rates and surface finish quality compared to 4-flute designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e38-degree helix angle improves chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubmicron solid carbide grade provides rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capability allows direct plunge milling without a pre-drilled entry point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard CNC and manual mill spindle configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-shank square end mill compatible with collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit toolholders accepting a 5\/8-inch straight shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop-standard toolholding procedures. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Seat the shank to the recommended insertion depth for the holder type in use and torque retention screws or collet nuts per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before commencing cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches (0.625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-5\/8 inches (1.625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches (3.5 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches (0.625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38 degrees\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlCrO-MAX\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\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2205\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 pounds\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: 311725\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52036612555058,"sku":"311725","price":219.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/19aa00cbfa6a06c5ff97f3f4452d025f_f98d2aa8-ce70-4425-b2a0-5241b5751874.jpg?v=1790023973","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gws-311725-square-end-mill-5-8-in-5-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
