Harvey Tool 24032 Corner Radius End Mill 1/2 in 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 24032 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-precision milling in demanding machining environments. Built to the Miniature End Mills Extra Long Length series specification, it features a 1/2 inch mill diameter, a 0.0300 inch corner radius, and a 4-flute spiral geometry with a 30-degree helix angle. The extended overall length of 8 inches and a reach length of 5.75 inches make this tool well-suited for deep-cavity and extended-reach operations where standard-length tooling cannot access the workpiece. It is center-cutting and configured for right-hand cutting and flute direction. Licensed machinists, CNC programmers, and tool-and-die shops are the typical end users.

This end mill is appropriate for both roughing and finishing operations on a wide range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, wood, and composites. The extra long length configuration is commonly applied in mold and die work, deep-pocket profiling, and multi-axis CNC applications where reach and rigidity must be balanced. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard toolholders used in vertical and horizontal machining centers.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in ferrous and non-ferrous applications
• 0.0300 inch corner radius with a tolerance of plus or minus 0.0010 inch for consistent edge geometry
• 8 inch overall length and 5.75 inch reach length for extended-reach and deep-cavity milling
• 4-flute spiral design with 30-degree helix angle optimized for both roughing and finishing passes
• Center-cutting capability allows plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous metals and applications where coating is not required

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard straight-bore toolholders compatible with a 1/2 inch cylindrical shank. Suitable for CNC machining centers performing operations on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, wood, and composite materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool changer is in a safe state before loading or removing the end mill. Secure the straight cylindrical shank in a collet chuck or end mill holder to the toolholder manufacturer's specified clamping procedure. Verify runout at the tool tip after seating, as extended-reach tools are sensitive to setup-induced deflection.
