Harvey Tool 29512-C3 Ball End Mill 0.1875 in 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 29512-C3 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for high-precision milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 0.1875-inch cutting diameter and a 0.16-inch length of cut, this tool is built for tight-tolerance work in die, mold, and precision machining applications. The 4-flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining a strong core for rigidity. An AlTiN coating adds thermal and oxidation resistance, extending tool life in demanding cutting conditions. Overall length is 3 inches with a 3/16-inch shank diameter, making it compatible with standard collet and end mill holder setups.

This ball end mill is suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills where small-diameter, contoured, or radius-bottom features are required. Typical applications include finishing passes on cavity walls, 3D profiling, and corner radii in hardened steels, alloy steels, stainless, and aluminum. It is a single-end tool intended for professional machinists and toolroom technicians working in production or prototype environments.

Key Features

• 0.1875-inch ball end cutting diameter for precise radius and contour milling
• 0.16-inch length of cut suited for shallow cavity and profile finishing
• 4-flute design balances chip removal with surface finish quality
• AlTiN coating provides high-temperature and oxidation resistance for extended tool life
• Solid carbide construction delivers rigidity and dimensional stability
• Single-end configuration with 3-inch overall length and 3/16-inch shank diameter

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide ball end mill replacement compatible with standard 3/16-inch collets and end mill holders used on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Secure the shank fully within the collet or holder to the recommended grip length to prevent pullout during cutting. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards when setting tool length offsets and spindle speeds.
