Kennametal 6072216 Corner Radius End Mill Head 1/2 in 6 Flute

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 6072216 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill head designed for use with the Duo-Lock 12 modular connection system. With a 1/2-inch cutting diameter and 6-flute spiral geometry, this head delivers high-feed milling performance in demanding metalworking applications. The AlTiN coating provides elevated heat and wear resistance, extending tool life in hardened steels, stainless, and high-temperature alloys. Built to the KCSM15 material grade, it is engineered for stability and consistent chip evacuation. Licensed machinists and CNC tooling technicians install this head as part of a Duo-Lock modular tooling assembly.

This end mill head fits residential and commercial machine shop environments running CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and similar equipment. It is suited for finishing and semi-finishing passes where corner radius integrity and surface finish consistency are critical. The right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional CNC spindle setups. The centercutting capability allows plunge entry where required. Compatible with Duo-Lock 12 series toolholders and the Duo-Lock UJDV series platform.

Key Features

• 1/2-inch (0.5000-inch) mill diameter with 0.0300-inch corner radius for controlled edge blending
• 6-flute spiral design for improved surface finish and chip load distribution
• AlTiN coating for high heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous and exotic alloys
• Solid carbide construction in KCSM15 material grade for rigidity and wear resistance
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling capability
• Duo-Lock 12 modular connection for fast, repeatable head changes without full tool replacement

Compatibility

Designed for use with Duo-Lock 12 modular toolholders in the Duo-Lock UJDV series platform.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified CNC tooling technician or machinist. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing end mill heads. Follow the Duo-Lock system torque and seating procedures specified by the toolholder manufacturer to ensure proper clamping and runout. Inspect the mating connection surfaces for contamination or damage before assembly.
