Micro 100 CRE-187-062X Corner Rounding End Mill 3 Flute

Product Description

The MICRO 100 CRE-187-062X is a double-ended, solid carbide corner rounding end mill designed to produce consistent radius profiles on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. It features a 1/16 inch (0.0625 inch) corner radius, a 3/16 inch mill diameter, and three right-hand flutes with a right-hand cutting direction. An AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in harder materials. The double-end design effectively doubles usable tool life before replacement. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals running CNC mills or manual milling machines install this cutter for edge-breaking and radius milling operations.

This end mill is suited for corner rounding and radius profiling operations on machined components in job shop, aerospace, and general manufacturing environments. The 3/16 inch shank diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders commonly found on vertical machining centers and manual knee mills. The 2 inch overall length provides adequate reach for most standard workpiece setups while maintaining rigidity. It is used where a controlled, repeatable radius is required on part edges or contoured features.

Key Features

• Double-ended design doubles usable cutting edges per tool
• AlTiN coating enhances heat and wear resistance for extended tool life in hard materials
• Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and dimensional stability
• 3 right-hand flutes with right-hand cutting direction for efficient chip evacuation
• 1/16 inch corner radius produces consistent, repeatable edge profiles
• 0.060 inch tip diameter suits tight-tolerance radius milling applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock corner rounding end mill compatible with 3/16 inch collets and end mill holders on CNC and manual milling machines accepting right-hand cutting tools.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes must be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine spindle fully stopped and locked out per shop safety procedures. Secure the 3/16 inch shank in a clean, properly sized collet or end mill holder and torque to the holder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or coating damage before mounting. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine manufacturer guidelines for speeds and feeds based on workpiece material.
