Part of the SB335 series, this single-end tool features a 1\/4 inch cutting diameter, a 3\/8 inch length of cut, and a 0.125 inch nose radius that defines the ball geometry. Three right-hand spiral flutes with a 35-degree helix angle provide balanced chip evacuation and surface finish quality during both roughing and finishing operations. An AlTiN PVD coating adds thermal resistance and surface hardness, extending tool life in elevated-temperature cutting environments. The straight cylindrical shank measures 1\/4 inch in diameter, and the overall length is 2 inches. This tool is intended for use by CNC machinists and toolroom professionals in production or job shop settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 17003788 is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium, corresponding to ISO material groups P, M, and S. The short length type and rigid solid carbide construction make it well-suited for profiling, contouring, and slotting operations where stability and tight tolerances are required. The right-hand cutting direction is compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation. This end mill does not feature extended reach, coolant-through capability, a chipbreaker, or a variable helix or index configuration, making it a straightforward choice for conventional high-speed machining applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides rigidity and dimensional stability during aggressive cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlTiN PVD coating enhances thermal and oxidation resistance in steel and superalloy applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute, 35-degree medium helix geometry balances chip evacuation with cutting stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall nose profile with 0.125 inch nose radius for 3D contouring and profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort length type minimizes deflection in tight-tolerance machining setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCapable of both roughing and finishing material removal in a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills with standard straight-bore 1\/4 inch toolholders.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool is secured in a clean, properly sized collet or end mill holder before tightening. Verify runout does not exceed the rated TIR maximum of 0.0005 inches after mounting. Consult the machine manufacturer and applicable cutting data guidelines for appropriate feed, speed, and depth-of-cut parameters for the target workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 0.3750 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 35 degrees\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN (PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel; Stainless Steel; Superalloys and Titanium\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\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0600 \/ -0.0600 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\u003eTIR Maximum\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: SB335\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 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: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17003788\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51559650984242,"sku":"17003788","price":64.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5ce774f56fd66a84086938058fd44c98.jpg?v=1786437435","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17003788-ball-end-mill-1-4-in-3-flute-altin-carbide-sb335","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
