Promax 120-01014 Roughing Finishing End Mill Solid Carbide

Product Description

The PROMAX 120-01014 is a solid carbide roughing finishing end mill designed for aggressive material removal with a refined surface finish in a single operation. Built with 4 flutes and a 40-degree helix angle, this tool balances chip evacuation with cutting stability. The 0.01-inch corner radius end geometry reduces edge chipping and extends tool life in demanding applications. An AlTiN coating adds heat resistance and hardness, making this end mill well suited for ferrous metals, stainless steels, and high-temperature alloys. It is intended for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals running CNC milling equipment.

This end mill fits tight-tolerance milling operations where both roughing and finishing passes must be completed efficiently. The 0.1563-inch diameter and 0.5-inch length of cut make it appropriate for slot milling, profiling, and pocket milling in small-feature applications. The single-end, right-hand cutting configuration suits standard CNC mill setups. Its compact geometry is particularly useful in tooling, moldmaking, and precision part manufacturing environments where small-diameter tooling is required.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard materials
• AlTiN coating provides elevated heat resistance and extended tool life
• 4-flute design balances material removal rate with surface finish quality
• 0.01-inch corner radius reduces stress concentration at cutting edges
• 40-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting action and efficient chip flow
• Right-hand flute direction and right-hand cutting for standard CNC spindle compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC vertical and horizontal milling machines accepting a 3/16-inch shank diameter end mill.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Use an appropriate collet or end mill holder sized for the 3/16-inch shank and torque the retention mechanism per the machine manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut to avoid premature tool wear or workpiece damage.
