Helical Solutions 29587 Corner Radius End Mill 3/4 in 3 Flute

Product Description

The HELICAL SOLUTIONS 29587 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-performance material removal in aluminum and non-ferrous metals. Built on the H45AL-C-3 series platform, it features a 3/4 inch mill diameter, 1-5/8 inch length of cut, and a 0.0300 inch corner radius that reduces stress concentration at the cutting edge. The Zplus PVD coating is engineered specifically for aluminum and non-ferrous applications, minimizing built-up edge and improving tool life. With a 45-degree high helix angle and three flutes, this end mill promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes in high-speed machining environments. Machinists and CNC operators running aluminum, copper, brass, and similar materials will find this tool suited to both roughing and finishing passes.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers and milling operations where aluminum, non-ferrous metals, and secondary materials such as steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high-temperature alloys, and hard materials are machined. The straight cylindrical shank and h6 shank diameter tolerance make it compatible with high-precision toolholders. Its centercutting design allows for plunge entry, and the coarse pitch with chipbreaker geometry supports aggressive material removal rates in production environments. The single-end configuration is standard for tooling in this category.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in high-speed cuts
• Zplus PVD coating optimized for aluminum and non-ferrous metal applications
• 0.0300 inch corner radius with a tolerance of -0.0020 to 0.0020 inches reduces edge chipping
• 45-degree high helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduced heat buildup
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole
• Chipbreaker geometry supports coarse pitch roughing at elevated feed rates
• Right-hand flute direction and right-hand cutting for standard CNC spindle operation

Compatibility

Designed for use with high-precision toolholders. Primary workpiece material is aluminum and non-ferrous metals; secondary workpiece materials include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high-temperature alloys, and hard materials. Series H45AL-C-3.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing tooling. Use a high-precision toolholder appropriate for a 3/4 inch straight cylindrical shank to maintain runout within the specified TIR maximum of 0.0003 inches. Verify tool projection and clearances before initiating any cutting cycle.
