With a 0.250-inch mill diameter and a 5\/8-inch length of cut, this tool delivers aggressive material removal in a compact, single-end configuration. The AlTiN PVD coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life when cutting ferrous and exotic materials. A 38-degree medium helix angle combined with a variable index geometry reduces vibration and improves surface finish. Micrograin carbide construction ensures edge integrity under high cutting loads. Licensed machinists and CNC tooling technicians install this tool in standard 1\/4-inch straight-cylindrical shank holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for roughing operations on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium, covering ISO material classifications P, M, K, and S. The SB638 series is optimized for applications where heat generation and tool deflection are primary concerns. Its 2.000-inch overall length and 0.625-inch reach length make it well suited for shallow-to-moderate pocket milling and profiling in vertical and horizontal machining centers. No extended reach or coolant-through capability is incorporated, making it appropriate for standard flood or mist coolant setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-flute solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN PVD coating for thermal resistance in high-temperature cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e38-degree medium helix angle with variable index for vibration reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall nose geometry with 0.1250-inch nose radius for 3D contouring and profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end design rated for roughing in steel, stainless, cast iron, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for applications specifying the SECO SB638 series in 1\/4-inch diameter.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Confirm collet or holder bore is clean and free of debris before seating the shank; check runout against the stated TIR maximum of 0.0005 inches after clamping. Do not exceed the rated depth of cut for the workpiece material group.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN (PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral, 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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0020 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 \/ -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0600 \/ -0.0600 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTIR Maximum\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: SB638\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03115938\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558291341618,"sku":"03115938","price":99.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a89224de01bbc3203c959538fcc429bf.jpg?v=1786408718","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-03115938-ball-end-mill-1-4-in-6-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
