With a 0.5-inch mill diameter, a 5\/8-inch length of cut, and a 3-flute geometry, this end mill delivers efficient chip evacuation and a clean square shoulder. The variable helix and variable index design reduce harmonic vibration during cutting, which translates to improved surface finish and longer tool life. A ZrN (zirconium nitride) coating enhances wear resistance and is particularly suited for non-ferrous materials such as aluminum, brass, and copper. It measures 5 inches in overall length with a 0.5-inch shank diameter. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for single-end use in CNC machining centers, milling machines, and similar equipment where precise square-shoulder milling is required. It is right-hand cutting with right-hand flute direction and is center-cutting, allowing plunge entry. The CoroMill Dura series targets demanding production environments where tool stability and consistent results across aluminum and other non-ferrous material grades are priorities. Material grade designation is N1BZ, indicating optimization for non-ferrous workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in demanding cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZrN coating optimized for non-ferrous materials including aluminum and copper alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable helix and variable index geometry minimize vibration and chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute configuration balances chip evacuation and cutting edge strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePart of the CoroMill Dura series, material grade N1BZ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use end mill within the SANDVIK COROMANT CoroMill Dura series.

Before mounting, confirm the spindle and tool holder are clean and free of debris to ensure proper runout. Secure the shank fully within the tool holder to the recommended gauge-line depth before tightening. Always verify spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut settings against the tool manufacturer recommendations for the specific workpiece material before initiating a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch (0.625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.600 - 0.700 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: ZrN (Zirconium Nitride)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes (35 degree variable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: CoroMill Dura\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: N1BZ\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.71 inches L x 0.67 inches W x 0.67 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.45 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\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: SANDVIK COROMANT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8038697\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SANDVIK COROMANT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733095809330,"sku":"8038697","price":278.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ef4ba161a69b6dac505e2e72fc460a3f.jpg?v=1788751277","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sandvik-coromant-8038697-square-end-mill-1-2-in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
