Harvey Tool 981245-C3 Chamfer Mill 3/8 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 981245-C3 is a solid carbide chamfer mill designed for precision chamfering, deburring, and edge-breaking operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Built with a 3/8 inch cutter head diameter, a 90-degree included angle, and a 3-flute single-end configuration, it delivers clean, consistent chamfers in a right-hand cutting direction. The AlTiN (Aluminum Titanium Nitride) coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in demanding cutting conditions. The tool has a 4 inch overall length and a 3/8 inch shank diameter, making it compatible with standard collet and end mill holders. Machinists and CNC operators in job shops and manufacturing environments rely on this geometry for tight-tolerance chamfer work.

This chamfer mill is suited for use on CNC machining centers and manual mills where chamfering, countersinking, and spot-facing operations are required. The 90-degree included angle is the standard geometry for general-purpose chamfering on a wide range of part geometries. With a 0.158 inch length of cut, it is optimized for light to moderate stock removal on edge preparation rather than deep profiling. It is appropriate for production environments working with steel, stainless, aluminum, and other machinable alloys.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating for improved heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous materials
• 90-degree included angle for standard general-purpose chamfering
• 3-flute single-end design provides a balance of chip evacuation and surface finish
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with conventional CNC spindle rotation
• 0.158 inch length of cut suitable for edge preparation and deburring

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-specification solid carbide chamfer mill fitting standard 3/8 inch collets and end mill tool holders used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the 3/8 inch shank in a clean, properly sized collet or end mill holder and torque to the tool holder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the cutting edges and coating for damage before use. Always bring the spindle to a complete stop before changing or inspecting tooling.
