Kennametal 6086396 Square End Mill 0.1875in 2 Flute Tialn

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 6086396 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in steel, stainless steel, and cast iron. It carries a TiAlN coating and a 30-degree helix angle, making it well suited for high-heat cutting environments where tool life and surface finish matter. The 2-flute configuration promotes chip evacuation in tougher ferrous materials. With a 0.1875-inch cutting diameter and 1.125-inch length of cut, this is a purpose-built tool for slot milling, profiling, and shoulder milling operations in the hands of a machinist or tool-and-die professional.

This end mill fits single-end toolholding setups with a 0.1875-inch straight shank and a 3-inch overall length. It is center-cutting, allowing plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole. The right-hand cut, right-hand spiral flute geometry suits standard CNC vertical machining centers and manual knee mills running conventional or climb milling passes on ferrous workpieces. The KC633M material grade and TiAlN finish support dry or minimal-coolant machining in production or job-shop environments.

Key Features

• TiAlN coating resists heat and oxidation during high-speed ferrous machining
• 30-degree helix angle balances chip flow and cutting forces in steel and cast iron
• Center-cutting design allows direct plunge entry without pilot drilling
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry for standard CNC and manual mill setups
• Solid carbide construction in KC633M grade for rigidity and wear resistance
• 2-flute layout promotes chip clearance in tougher, stringy materials

Compatibility

Rated for primary workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, and cast iron (material codes P, M, and K). Part of the KENNAMETAL 2SE series. Designed for use in standard 3/16-inch collets or toolholders on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolholding procedures. Power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or removing the end mill from the collet or toolholder. Ensure the shank is fully seated to the recommended grip depth and that the toolholder runout is within acceptable limits before cutting. Consult the machine manufacturer and applicable shop safety standards when setting feeds, speeds, and depth of cut.
