It features a 0.062-inch mill diameter, a 0.186-inch reach length, and a variable helix geometry at 42 degrees that reduces chatter and improves chip evacuation at high feed rates. The TiB2 (titanium diboride) PVD coating provides lubricity and heat resistance suited to aluminum, preventing built-up edge. With three flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, this single-end tool is built for finishing and light roughing passes in tight-tolerance work. Machinists and toolroom operators working on CNC machining centers install this end mill for contoured and profiled surfaces in aluminum and similar non-ferrous materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for CNC milling operations on aluminum alloys, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous metals where a ball-nose profile is required for 3D contouring, radius profiling, and cavity work. The 1\/8-inch straight-cylindrical shank fits standard collet systems on vertical and horizontal machining centers. Its standard-length classification and 1.5-inch overall length make it appropriate for most shallow-to-moderate-depth features where extended reach tooling is not required. The variable helix design is part of the HARVEY TOOL series specifically engineered for aluminum alloy material removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable helix at 42 degrees reduces harmonic vibration and chatter in aluminum milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiB2 PVD coating provides low friction and resists built-up edge on non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction delivers rigidity and dimensional stability in tight-tolerance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree-flute helical design balances chip clearance and cutting surface contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall-nose geometry enables 3D contouring, radius profiling, and blended surface work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for use in standard CNC spindle configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers with standard 1\/8-inch collet or end mill holder systems.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the control is in E-stop or tool-change mode before inserting or removing the tool. Use a properly sized collet or shrink-fit holder rated for the 1\/8-inch shank diameter and verify runout before running production. Do not exceed the tool manufacturer's recommended speeds and feeds for the workpiece material and depth of cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.062 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.031 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 42 degrees (Variable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.186 inches\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: TiB2 (PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute 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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Ferrous Metal\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\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 989762-C8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEY TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732013285682,"sku":"989762-C8","price":76.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dc4adc9963dc369d8d0bae80439b1132_8c187a4d-b891-4529-b05f-885353fa1f7d.jpg?v=1788738107","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvey-tool-989762-c8-ball-end-mill-0-062in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
