Osg 20100100 Ball End Mill 0.125 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 20100100 is a solid carbide ball end mill engineered for high-performance milling in non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper alloys. It features a 0.125 inch mill diameter, a 0.375 inch length of cut, and a 1.5 inch overall length with a straight cylindrical shank. The two-flute, right-hand helical geometry with a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The micrograin carbide substrate provides rigidity and wear resistance in demanding material removal applications. This is a single-end, standard-length tool designed for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills requiring fine-detail profiling or contour work on soft alloy workpieces.

The OSG 20100100 is intended for roughing and finishing operations on non-ferrous metals, including aluminum and copper alloys. The special end cut gashing and offset tooth geometry allow for large depths of cut and maximum feed per tooth. It fits applications in aerospace, automotive, and general metalworking where accurate ball-nose profiles are required. The 0.0625 inch nose radius and 0.125 inch shank diameter make this tool suitable for tight-tolerance slot milling, contouring, and 3D profiling on precision workpieces.

Key Features

• 0.125 inch mill diameter with a 0.0625 inch nose radius for precise ball-nose profiling
• 2-flute right-hand helical geometry with a 30-degree medium helix for efficient chip removal
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life in non-ferrous materials
• Special end cut gashing and offset teeth support large depths of cut and high feed rates
• Single-end, straight cylindrical shank with h6 shank diameter tolerance for secure toolholder fit
• Standard length with 0.375 inch reach length suited for typical profiling and slotting operations

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills with toolholders accepting a 0.125 inch straight-cylindrical shank. Optimized for non-ferrous metal workpiece materials including aluminum and copper alloys per the OSG Series 2010 Exocarbaero Blizzard line specification.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC technician with the spindle fully powered down and the machine in a safe, locked-out state. Confirm that the toolholder bore and collet are clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Use a torque wrench and follow the toolholder manufacturer's specified drawbar or collet nut procedure. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation before beginning any cutting operation.
