Kennametal 4032787 Square End Mill 0.2362in 3-flute Altin

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 4032787 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in demanding machining environments. With a 0.2362 inch (6 mm) cutting diameter, a 0.315 inch length of cut, and a 3-flute spiral geometry at a 38-degree helix angle, this tool delivers efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes on ferrous and hardened workpiece materials. The AlTiN coating and KC643M material grade provide elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in high-speed dry or semi-dry cutting conditions. It is a single-end, center-cutting tool with right-hand flute orientation and right-hand cutting direction, suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations.

This end mill is appropriate for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills across job shop, tool and die, and production environments. The stub length configuration offers added rigidity, reducing deflection during light-to-moderate material removal passes. The 0.2362 inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter, making it compatible with standard ER or shrink-fit collet toolholders sized for 6 mm or 0.2362 inch shanks. It is typically applied in milling of steel alloys, stainless steel, and other materials where AlTiN coatings perform well at elevated cutting temperatures.

Key Features

• 0.2362 inch (6 mm) cutting diameter with matched shank diameter for direct collet mounting
• AlTiN coating with KC643M carbide grade for high-temperature wear resistance
• 38-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduced cutting forces
• 3-flute spiral geometry balances chip clearance with surface finish quality
• Stub length design maximizes rigidity and minimizes deflection
• Center-cutting capability allows plunge entry into workpiece material

Compatibility

Part of the KENNAMETAL UEDE series. Designed for use with standard collet toolholders or shrink-fit holders accepting a 0.2362 inch (6 mm) shank diameter. Shank diameter tolerance is +0.000 / -0.008 mm; mill diameter tolerance is -0.020 / -0.038 mm.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the toolholder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank to the full recommended gauge length. Verify spindle direction is set to right-hand rotation before engaging the cut. Follow shop safety protocols and machine manufacturer guidelines when setting tool offsets and runout.
