Osg 462-1875 Square End Mill 3/16 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 462-1875 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this tool delivers the hardness and edge retention needed for demanding cuts in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It features a 3/16 inch cutting diameter, 3/4 inch length of cut, and a 2-1/4 inch overall length. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. With 2 flutes and a spiral flute geometry, it is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users of this tool in job shop and production environments.

This end mill fits standard 3/16 inch collets and tool holders. Its centercutting design allows plunge entry into workpieces, adding flexibility for ramping and plunging operations. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration matches conventional spindle rotation on most milling machines and machining centers. The long length type provides additional reach for deeper features. It is uncoated, making it a straightforward choice for general-purpose milling where coatings are not required or where regrinding is anticipated. This tool is part of OSG Series 462 and is sold individually.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before mounting or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully in the collet or tool holder and torque the retention hardware to the machine manufacturer's specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning production cuts.
