Built on the UJBE series platform, it features a 4-degree taper angle per side and a 1\/8-inch small end diameter with a 1\/16-inch nose radius, making it well suited for fine-detail finish passes in hardened steels and high-temp alloys. The AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and oxidation protection at elevated cutting speeds. Six right-hand flutes with a 38-degree helix deliver smooth chip evacuation and reduce chatter in demanding cut conditions. A 5\/16-inch shank diameter and 3-inch overall length give it the reach needed for deep-pocket applications while maintaining rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tapered end mill is designed for CNC machining centers in aerospace, die-and-mold, and precision component manufacturing environments. Its ball end geometry is suited for semi-finish and finish milling of sculpted surfaces, tapered walls, and undercut profiles. The center-cutting capability allows plunge entry where tool path strategies require it. This tool is installed and run by machinists and CNC programmers operating vertical or horizontal machining centers with appropriate toolholding for 5\/16-inch shank tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-degree taper angle per side for tapered wall and deep-cavity milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall end geometry with 1\/16-inch nose radius for contoured and 3D surface work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating for high-heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous and high-temp alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6 right-hand flutes with 38-degree helix for smooth chip flow and reduced vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for stiffness and wear resistance in hardened materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers with toolholding systems that accept a 5\/16-inch round shank.

Secure the 5\/16-inch shank in a clean, properly sized collet or end mill holder and verify runout before cutting. Confirm spindle speed and feed rate are set per the recommended cutting data for the workpiece material and coating type. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use and do not exceed the rated length of cut of 1-3\/16 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: UJBE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inches (0.0625 inches \/ 1.59 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Angle per Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-3\/16 inches (1.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3810 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.35 x 0.59 x 0.59 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.077 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5970222\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51741724377394,"sku":"5970222","price":183.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/692a6a2456d14d586e7876291afe6cfe.jpg?v=1788833131","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-5970222-tapered-ball-end-mill-6-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
