Gws 313063 Square End Mill 1/4 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The GWS 313063 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. With a 1/4 inch cutting diameter and a 1-1/8 inch length of cut, this two-flute tool is built for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling where edge sharpness and material removal accuracy are critical. The submicron carbide grade provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for demanding cuts. The bright, uncoated finish makes it well-suited for non-ferrous materials and general-purpose applications where coating is not required. Machinists and CNC operators are the primary installers of this tool.

This end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines handling non-ferrous metals, plastics, composites, and similar materials. The 45-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces, making it a reliable choice for finish passes and light roughing work in production and job-shop settings. The single-end configuration and right-hand cutting direction are standard for conventional milling setups.

Key Features

• Solid carbide submicron grade construction for hardness and extended tool life
• 45-degree right-hand helix for efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action
• Two-flute geometry optimized for slotting and profiling in non-ferrous and general-purpose materials
• Centercutting design allows plunge milling capability
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous metals and plastics
• Right-hand flute direction for standard spindle compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4 inch shank square end mill compatible with collets, end mill holders, and chucks sized for 1/4 inch shanks on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills.

Installation Notes

Installation of this end mill should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard tooling procedures. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Verify collet or chuck runout is within acceptable tolerance before operation to prevent premature tool wear or breakage. Consult the machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards when setting speeds and feeds.
