Sgs 00578 Square End Mill 0.095 in 4 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 00578 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal, composites, and other hard materials. With a cutting diameter of 0.095 inches and four flutes arranged in a right-hand spiral configuration, this tool delivers efficient chip evacuation and a clean finish in tight-tolerance applications. A 30-degree helix angle balances cutting aggressiveness with surface finish quality. The micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for demanding production environments. This end mill is installed and operated by machinists and tool-and-die professionals using CNC machining centers and manual milling equipment.

The SGS 00578 suits applications requiring small-diameter, close-tolerance milling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The centercutting geometry allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece, making it suitable for slotting, profiling, and pocket milling operations. With a shank diameter of 0.125 inches, this tool fits standard collets and end mill holders sized for 1/8-inch shanks. Its regular-length classification and 1.5-inch overall length make it practical for confined-feature work where tool clearance is limited.

Key Features

• Four flutes with right-hand spiral and 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip removal
• Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• 0.095-inch cutting diameter for small-feature and tight-tolerance milling
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard 1/8-inch collets and end mill holders
• Bright/uncoated finish; Series 1810 single-end design

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines equipped with 1/8-inch collets or end mill holders accepting straight-cylindrical shanks.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer's runout and clamping specifications. Ensure the spindle and workholding are fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Do not exceed the tool's rated cutting parameters for speed and feed as established by the machine operator or programmer.
