Gws 312329 Corner Radius End Mill 3/4 in 5 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The GWS 312329 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-performance milling in demanding metal-cutting applications. Built to Series 2213 standards, it features a 3/4 inch diameter, a 1/4 inch corner radius, and 5 flutes with a variable helix and variable index geometry. The FX3 AlCr coating provides heat and wear resistance during aggressive cuts. With a short-length flute configuration and an overall length of 4 inches, this end mill is suited for both roughing and finishing operations. It is installed by machinists and tooling specialists working on CNC mills and machining centers using standard end mill holders.

This end mill is engineered for cutting steel, stainless steel, superalloys, titanium, and cast iron. The 1 inch length of cut, 2 inch reach length, and 3/4 inch straight-cylindrical shank with h6 tolerance make it a practical choice for tight-tolerance work in job shops, aerospace component machining, and general metalworking environments where tool rigidity and surface finish consistency are critical. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, expanding its utility across a range of milling strategies.

Key Features

• 5-flute variable helix and variable index geometry reduces chatter and improves surface finish
• 1/4 inch corner radius minimizes stress concentration and extends tool life at workpiece corners
• FX3 AlCr coating rated for steel, stainless steel, superalloys, titanium, and cast iron
• Centercutting design permits plunge milling and helical ramping
• Submicron carbide grade for improved toughness and wear resistance
• Extended reach of 2 inches supports deeper cavity and wall milling setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard end mill holders. Compatible with CNC milling applications involving steel, stainless steel, superalloys, titanium, and cast iron workpiece materials per Series 2213 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified machinists following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for end mill holder torque and runout specifications. Confirm shank engagement depth meets holder requirements before operation. Always power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Verify tool projection and reach clearance against the workpiece fixture to avoid collision.
