It carries a 1\/4 inch cutting diameter, a 0.010 inch corner radius, and five flutes arranged in a variable index, high-helix geometry to reduce chatter and improve chip evacuation. The proprietary EXO coating adds thermal resistance and hardness, extending tool life in tough workpiece materials. At 2 inches overall length with a 3\/8 inch length of cut, this is a short-length tool intended for rigidity in tight-clearance finishing and semi-finishing operations. Machinists and toolroom operators select this end mill for precision contouring where edge integrity and surface finish matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VGM5-0046 is designed for CNC machining centers and manual mills using standard cylindrical toolholders. Its straight-cylindrical, 1\/4 inch shank with an h6 tolerance provides consistent runout in collet and end mill holders. The 40-degree high helix promotes smooth cutting action in both roughing and finishing passes. The centercutting geometry allows plunge entry. Primary applications include profiling, slotting, and ramp entry in ferrous and hard materials across job shop, aerospace, and general manufacturing environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard and abrasive workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEXO proprietary coating improves thermal and abrasion resistance for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFive-flute, variable index design reduces harmonic chatter during high-feed operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.010 inch corner radius protects the cutting edge and improves surface finish at part corners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry enables direct plunge entry without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand spiral flute direction compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard cylindrical toolholders accepting a 1\/4 inch straight shank.

Ensure the shank is fully seated and clean before tightening the collet or set-screw holder to manufacturer specifications. Confirm spindle direction is set to right-hand rotation before engaging the cut. Do not exceed the tool's rated depth of cut or feed rate for the workpiece material being machined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0100 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0000 \/ -0.0011 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees (High)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Corner Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: EXO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys and Titanium, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: VGM5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: OSG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: VGM5-0046\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731809894706,"sku":"VGM5-0046","price":53.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7eb40870c830918f9c9dd689ee9b9ee3.jpg?v=1788735169","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-vgm5-0046-corner-radius-end-mill-1-4-in-5-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
