Osg 482-2362 Square End Mill 0.2362 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 482-2362 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. With a 0.2362-inch (6 mm) mill diameter, a 1.4961-inch (38 mm) length of cut, and a 2-flute spiral design with a 30-degree helix angle, this tool delivers clean, accurate cuts in a compact, extra-long configuration. The micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and wear resistance required for demanding cuts. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry are standard for conventional CNC and manual milling setups. The centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole.

This end mill is suited for general-purpose slot milling, profile milling, and pocket work in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The extra-long length of cut — ranging from 1.25 to 1.50 inches — makes it well-suited for deeper cavity work where standard-length tooling cannot reach. It is used by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and CNC operators working in job shops, production facilities, and maintenance environments. The uncoated finish makes it a versatile baseline tool for shops that apply their own coatings or work with non-abrasive materials.

Key Features

• 0.2362-inch (6 mm) mill diameter with matching 6 mm shank diameter for secure collet retention
• 1.4961-inch (38 mm) length of cut — extra-long reach for deep slot and cavity work
• 2-flute spiral design with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling without pilot drilling
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for hardness and extended tool life
• Right-hand cut, right-hand flute — compatible with standard CNC spindle direction

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide square end mill for use in standard collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit toolholders accepting a 6 mm shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and free of chips before mounting. Seat the shank to the recommended engagement depth in the holder and torque set screws or collet nuts to the tool holder manufacturer's specification. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, as excessive runout will accelerate wear on a 2-flute carbide tool.
