It features a 1\/2 inch cutting diameter, a 5\/8 inch length of cut, and a 3 inch overall length with a 1\/2 inch shank diameter. The three-flute geometry paired with a 37-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. A zirconium nitride (ZrN) finish improves surface hardness and wear resistance, extending tool life in demanding cutting conditions. This end mill is centercutting, allowing plunge cuts in addition to standard peripheral and slot milling operations. It is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines by machinists and tool-and-die professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 314818 is built for general-purpose and finishing milling work on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The upcut flute design pulls chips up and away from the workpiece, making it effective in through-pocket and slot milling scenarios. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration is standard for conventional spindle setups. This tool is part of the GWS Series 2030 line and is sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch cutting diameter with 5\/8 inch length of cut for controlled depth engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute solid carbide construction for rigidity and heat resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e37-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZrN coating increases surface hardness and extends tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design enables direct plunge entry into the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpcut flute geometry clears chips away from the cut zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard CNC and manual mill setups\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 1\/2 inch collet and end mill holder setups used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with proper tooling practices. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Secure the shank fully within the collet or end mill holder to the minimum insertion depth recommended by the holder manufacturer to avoid deflection or pull-out. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut when tight tolerances are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: ZrN (Zirconium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 37 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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2030\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.38 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: 314818\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52107688083762,"sku":"314818","price":142.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e3e5f660cf19e8f2b626180c6fb8eea_57f9eef7-9b57-4a5a-9aa5-c44fea1cf3e6.jpg?v=1790074344","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gws-314818-square-end-mill-1-2-in-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
