Hertel E599924483 Ball End Mill 1/8 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL E599924483 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal, composite, and engineering plastics. With a 1/8 inch cutting diameter and a 1/4 inch length of cut, this tool is built for profiling, contouring, and slotting in confined workspaces where accuracy matters. The 2-flute geometry with a 30-degree right-hand spiral helix promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. At 1-1/2 inches overall length and a matching 1/8 inch shank diameter, the tool is sized for use in standard collets on CNC machining centers and manual mills. The bright uncoated finish suits general-purpose applications across a range of materials.

This end mill is suited for shops and machinists running finish contouring passes, radius profiling, and three-dimensional surface work on CNC mills or manual machining setups. The single-end, center-cutting configuration allows plunge entry as well as lateral cutting. The compact 1/8 inch diameter makes it a common choice for detail work, die and mold finishing, and tight-radius internal features where larger tools cannot reach.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision milling
• Ball end geometry for 3D contouring, radius profiling, and curved surface finishing
• 2-flute, 30-degree right-hand helix for efficient chip evacuation
• Center-cutting capable — supports direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose machining across multiple materials
• Single-end design with matched 1/8 inch shank and cutting diameter for standard collet fitment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or production ball end mill compatible with CNC machining centers and manual milling machines using standard 1/8 inch collets or end mill holders.

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 changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth and torque the collet nut per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, particularly for tight-tolerance finish passes.
