Osg 3182080 Square End Mill 0.315in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 3182080 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for high-performance milling in metalworking and machining applications. It features a 0.315-inch cutting diameter, a 0.6299-inch length of cut, and a two-flute configuration with a 30-degree helix angle. The WXL coating provides enhanced wear resistance and extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. Machined from micrograin solid carbide, this end mill delivers precise, repeatable cuts with minimal runout. It is a single-end, center-cutting tool with right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction, suitable for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations.

This end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where tight tolerances and fine surface finishes are required. The 0.315-inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter for straightforward tool holding in standard collets and end mill holders. The 30-degree helix promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces, making it effective for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is part of the OSG Series 3721 lineup and is intended for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals in production and job-shop environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Verify collet size matches the 0.315-inch shank diameter and that the tool is seated and torqued per the machine tool manufacturer specifications. Inspect the tool for chips or cracks before use and confirm runout is within acceptable tolerance for the intended operation.
