Harvey Tool 836362 Square End Mill 1/16 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 836362 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metalworking, moldmaking, and general machining applications. With a 1/16 inch cutting diameter and a 3-flute geometry, it delivers clean, accurate cuts in tight-tolerance features such as slots, pockets, and contours. The 30-degree helix angle balances chip evacuation with cutting stability, and the uncoated bright finish suits a wide range of work materials where coating interaction is a concern. At 1-1/2 inches overall length with a 0.186 inch length of cut, this is a compact tool built for controlled, low-deflection passes in small-feature work.

This end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where fine detail and small-diameter toolpaths are required. Its centercutting design allows plunge entry, expanding its utility for ramping and helical interpolation operations. The 1/8 inch shank diameter is compatible with standard collet systems commonly found in high-speed spindle setups used in die, mold, and precision component work. It is typically run by machinists and toolmakers working in job shops, aerospace, medical device, and mold manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• 1/16 inch (0.0625 inch) cutting diameter for fine-feature and small-slot applications
• 3-flute solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and surface finish quality
• Centercutting geometry enables plunge, ramp, and helical entry
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration - standard CNC orientation
• Uncoated bright finish suitable for general-purpose machining across multiple materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide square end mill compatible with standard 1/8 inch collet systems on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines requiring small-diameter tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in an e-stop or locked-out state before changing tooling. Seat the 1/8 inch shank fully and evenly in the collet before tightening to avoid runout. Small-diameter carbide end mills are brittle - avoid side impacts and confirm feeds, speeds, and depth of cut are within the tool manufacturer recommendations before engaging the cut.
