Hertel E599924381 Ball End Mill 1/32 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL E599924381 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 1/32 inch (0.0313 inch decimal) cutting diameter and a 1/16 inch length of cut, this tool is built for fine detail work, slot milling, and contour profiling in tight geometries. The double-end configuration provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life on the shop floor. Two right-hand flutes and a right-hand cutting direction deliver clean chip evacuation and consistent surface finish in CNC and manual milling applications. Machinists and tooling specialists working with small-diameter end mills will find this suited to precision finishing passes and micro-milling operations.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers, knee mills, and similar milling equipment where small-diameter tooling is required. The 1/8 inch shank diameter accommodates standard collet systems commonly found in both production and job-shop environments. The 1-1/2 inch overall length provides adequate reach while maintaining rigidity at this diameter. Typical applications include die and mold work, engraving, and fine-feature machining in materials such as aluminum, steel, and composites.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance in demanding cutting conditions
• Ball end geometry for contour profiling, 3D surfacing, and radius slot milling
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool, maximizing value per unit
• 1/32 inch cutting diameter suited to fine-detail and micro-milling operations
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction compatible with standard spindle rotation
• 1/8 inch shank fits widely available collet sizes across common milling setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual milling machines accepting a 1/8 inch shank collet with right-hand spindle rotation.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and machine power isolated. Seat the shank fully into the collet and torque the collet nut according to the machine manufacturer's specification for the collet size in use. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use, as solid carbide is brittle and susceptible to breakage if impacted or improperly loaded. Follow the machine tool manufacturer's recommended feed and speed parameters for the workpiece material when setting up this diameter end mill.
