Iscar 5620896 Square End Mill 3/8 in 3 Flute Tialn Carbide

Product Description

The ISCAR 5620896 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision material removal in milling operations. Built to IC900 material grade standards and coated with TiAlN for heat resistance and extended tool life, this end mill features a 3-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with a 38-degree helix angle. The 0.375-inch diameter cutter pairs with a 0.375-inch Weldon Flat shank for secure tool holding. With a 0.75-inch length of cut and 2.5-inch overall length, it is suited for regular-reach slotting, profiling, and side milling tasks. Installation and operation are handled by machinists and CNC tooling professionals.

This end mill is designed for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines requiring a 3/8-inch diameter square end tool. The TiAlN coating and IC900 carbide grade make it suitable for a broad range of workpiece materials including steels, stainless steels, cast irons, non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys, corresponding to material codes P, M, K, H, and S. The Weldon Flat shank ensures positive engagement in side-lock tool holders, reducing pullout risk during aggressive cuts.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction at IC900 material grade for rigidity and wear resistance
• TiAlN coating provides thermal protection and extends tool life in dry or semi-dry cutting
• 38-degree right-hand spiral helix promotes efficient chip evacuation
• 3-flute design balances chip clearance and surface finish in a variety of materials
• Centercutting geometry allows plunge milling operations
• Weldon Flat shank provides positive locking in side-lock holders

Compatibility

Compatible with workpiece material codes H, K, M, P, and S, covering tool steels, cast irons, stainless steels, carbon steels, and high-temperature alloys. Accepts standard 3/8-inch side-lock or Weldon Flat tool holders.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists using a calibrated tool holder and torque wrench appropriate for side-lock or Weldon Flat collet systems. Always power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Verify tool runout with a dial indicator after seating to avoid premature edge wear. Follow the machine manufacturer's feed and speed guidelines for the workpiece material and coating type in use.
