Harvey Tool 995720 Square End Mill 0.5mm 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 995720 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for high-precision milling of hard and abrasive materials. With a 0.5 mm cutting diameter and a 0.06 inch length of cut, this tool is built for micro-machining applications where tight tolerances and consistent edge geometry are critical. The CVD diamond coating provides exceptional hardness and wear resistance, making it well suited for machining graphite, carbon fiber, ceramics, and other abrasive composites. Four right-hand flutes with a 30-degree helix angle deliver efficient chip evacuation and a smooth finish. This end mill is installed and operated by machinists and tooling professionals working with CNC milling equipment.

This tool is intended for use in precision machining environments, including aerospace, medical device, electronics, and mold-and-die applications where extremely small cutting diameters are required. The 1/8 inch shank diameter fits standard collet systems commonly found on CNC machining centers and high-speed spindles. The 1.5 inch overall length provides adequate reach while maintaining rigidity at small diameters. Center-cutting geometry allows plunge entry, expanding the range of toolpaths available to the operator.

Key Features

• 0.5 mm cutting diameter for micro-scale precision milling
• CVD diamond coating for superior wear resistance on abrasive materials
• 4 right-hand flutes with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Center-cutting design allows direct plunge entry
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and dimensional stability
• 1/8 inch shank diameter fits standard CNC collet systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide square end mill for CNC machining centers and high-speed spindle systems accepting a 1/8 inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

This end mill is installed by qualified machinists using appropriate collet toolholders rated for the shank diameter. Ensure the spindle and toolholder are clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Verify runout with a dial indicator before commencing cuts, as excessive runout at this diameter will accelerate tool wear and compromise finish quality. Always follow machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety protocols when handling carbide tooling.
