With a cutting diameter of 0.015 inches and a 4-flute helical design, this single-end stub-length tool delivers consistent material removal in both roughing and finishing operations. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation at small diameters. An AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) PVD coating increases surface hardness and thermal resistance, extending tool life in ferrous material applications where heat generation is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is built for micro-machining applications where tight tolerances and fine surface finishes are required. Stub-length geometry provides added rigidity, reducing deflection during aggressive passes in harder workpiece materials. Typical applications include mold and die work, medical component machining, aerospace detail parts, and precision tooling where a 1\/64-inch ball profile is needed. The straight cylindrical shank allows direct mounting in standard collet chucks or end mill holders. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation are standard for conventional CNC machining center setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.015-inch (1\/64 inch) ball end cutting diameter with a nose radius of 0.0075 inches for accurate profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 helical flutes with a 30-degree helix angle for smooth chip flow and reduced cutting force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlTiN PVD coating for elevated hardness and heat resistance in ferrous machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStub-length design (0.022-inch length of cut) maximizes rigidity and minimizes deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides stiffness and dimensional stability at miniature scales\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-end, right-hand cut configuration for standard CNC setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for primary use in steel, stainless steel, and cast iron workpiece materials (ISO material codes P, M, and K).

Ensure the collet and holder are clean and free of debris before seating the 0.125-inch shank to achieve accurate runout. Miniature end mills at this diameter are sensitive to runout and side-load; verify tool projection and holder concentricity before beginning a cut. Follow the tool manufacturer and machine builder guidelines for speeds, feeds, and depth of cut when working with this diameter range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.015 inches (1\/64 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (Reach)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.022 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches (1\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0075 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 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\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN (PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Helical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0005 \/ -0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HARVEY TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24615-C3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEY TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749314330930,"sku":"24615-C3","price":72.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4554b3f94a5d0cb64c40eb2d2d45cdda_7b2ed0e3-7d7c-4784-b7fc-9cd4b7a9336b.jpg?v=1788904415","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvey-tool-24615-c3-ball-end-mill-0-015-in-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
