Harvey Tool 945608 Square End Mill 1/8 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 945608 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metalworking and machining applications. With a 1/8 inch (0.125 inch) cutting diameter and 3 flutes, it delivers clean, accurate cuts in a compact form factor suited for detailed or tight-tolerance work. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. At 2.5 inches overall length with a 3/16 inch (0.187 inch) length of cut, this tool is built for controlled, repeatable performance. It ships with a bright, uncoated finish and is intended for use by machinists and tooling professionals in shop or production environments.

This end mill is suited for light to medium milling operations where a small-diameter, single-end carbide tool is required. The 1/2 inch reach length and 3/16 inch length of cut make it appropriate for slotting, profiling, and finishing passes in confined areas or on small workpieces. The right-hand cutting direction and right-hand flute direction follow standard milling conventions. Center-cutting capability allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Extended reach geometry provides added clearance in deep-pocket or stepped-wall scenarios.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 3 flutes with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip flow
• Center-cutting design allows direct plunge entry
• Extended reach geometry with 0.5 inch reach length
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction
• Bright, uncoated finish for general-purpose use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide square end mill for standard 1/8 inch collet or chuck systems used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist. Secure the shank fully into a compatible 1/8 inch collet or end mill holder and verify runout before beginning a cut. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before tooling changes. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when handling carbide cutting tools.
