Osg 3182030 Square End Mill 0.1181in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 3182030 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. It features a 0.1181-inch cutting diameter and a 0.2362-inch length of cut, making it well suited for fine detail work, slotting, and peripheral milling in tight geometries. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces. A WXL coating enhances wear resistance and extends tool life in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. This tool is installed and used by machinists and CNC operators working on mills, machining centers, and manual knee mills requiring small-diameter end mills.

This end mill is built for applications where tight dimensional tolerances and fine surface finishes are required. The micrograin solid carbide construction provides rigidity and edge retention at small diameters. With a 0.2362-inch shank diameter matching the cutting diameter, it fits standard collets and tool holders in that size range. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry where required. Typical applications include die and mold work, aerospace component machining, and precision part production where small-diameter tools are routinely used.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists using appropriate collets or end mill holders rated for the 0.2362-inch shank diameter. Ensure the tool holder and spindle are clean and free of debris before seating the tool. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before commencing cutting operations. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when setting speeds and feeds for small-diameter carbide end mills.
