Hertel E599924382 Ball End Mill 0.0469 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL E599924382 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. With a 0.0469 inch (3/64 inch) cutting diameter and a 0.0938 inch length of cut, this tool is built for fine detail work, small-radius contouring, and slotting in tight geometries. The double-end configuration provides two usable cutting ends, extending tool life between changeovers. A 1/8 inch shank diameter makes it compatible with standard collet systems. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional milling setups. Machinists and CNC operators working with close-tolerance parts will find this tool suited to demanding finish-pass applications.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and manual knee mills where small-diameter ball end tooling is required. It is well suited for die and mold work, engraving, 3D contouring, and cavity finishing where a tight corner radius and accurate tip geometry are critical. The solid carbide construction handles hardened steels, stainless, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials depending on speeds and feeds selected by the operator. The 1-1/2 inch overall length keeps deflection manageable at this diameter.

Key Features

• 0.0469 inch (3/64 inch) ball nose cutting diameter for fine detail and small-radius work
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 2-flute geometry supports chip evacuation in small-diameter cuts
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for conventional milling
• 1/8 inch shank diameter fits standard collet systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 1/8 inch shank collet. No specific machine model compatibility was stated in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the shank fully within the collet to the recommended engagement depth before tightening — insufficient engagement at this diameter can lead to tool pull-out or breakage. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before tool changes. Verify speeds and feeds are appropriate for the workpiece material and this tool diameter before initiating a cut.
