Osg 462-1575 Square End Mill 0.1575 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 462-1575 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision metal removal in milling applications. With a 0.1575 inch cutting diameter and a 0.748 inch length of cut, this tool is built for controlled slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in tight tolerances. The 2-flute geometry and 30-degree spiral helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Made from micrograin solid carbide with a bright uncoated finish, the 462-1575 delivers consistent performance in a long-length configuration. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments.

This end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines where a small-diameter, long-reach cutting tool is required. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional milling setups. The centercutting capability allows for plunge entry as well as standard peripheral and slot milling passes. The long length type extends reach into deeper features without requiring a tool extension. Typical applications include finishing passes on small profiles, slot cutting, and detail work on ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in small-diameter tooling
• 0.748 inch length of cut supports deeper reach within the long series classification
• 30-degree helix angle promotes chip flow and reduces cutting forces
• Centercutting design allows plunge milling entry
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for a wide range of workpiece materials
• 2-flute configuration balances chip clearance with edge strength at small diameters

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide square end mill in the OSG Series 462 long series. Compatible with standard ER collet chucks, end mill holders, and other toolholding systems that accept a 0.1575 inch round shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the tool shank is fully seated and properly torqued in the toolholder before operation. Verify spindle runout is within acceptable limits for the cutting diameter to prevent premature tool wear or breakage. Do not exceed the tool manufacturer's recommended feeds and speeds for the workpiece material and cutting condition.
