Sgs 00724 Ball End Mill 0.06 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 00724 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling of contoured surfaces, 3D profiling, and detail work in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 0.06-inch cutting diameter and 0.09-inch length of cut make this tool suited for fine-feature work where tight tolerances and consistent geometry are required. The micrograin carbide substrate provides the hardness and edge retention needed for small-diameter tooling. A 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. This end mill is used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on CNC machining centers and manual mills requiring small-radius work.

The SGS 00724 is appropriate for stub-length milling applications where minimal tool overhang is an advantage. It fits into standard 1/8-inch collets and tool holders found on CNC milling equipment. The single-end, right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute configuration is the standard setup for conventional and climb milling passes in profiling and slotting operations. The uncoated finish is suitable for applications where coatings are not required or where re-sharpening is anticipated.

Key Features

• 0.06-inch ball end cutting diameter with mill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0008 inches for consistent part geometry
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for edge retention and rigidity at small diameters
• 2-flute spiral design with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• 1/8-inch shank diameter fits standard collets and tool holders
• Stub length classification reduces deflection in shallow-reach applications
• Single-end, right-hand cut with uncoated finish

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills equipped with 1/8-inch collet or tool holder systems; part of the SGS Series 1635 ball end mill line.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by qualified machinists with the spindle fully stopped and the machine in a safe, locked-out state. Ensure the 1/8-inch shank is seated and secured to the full recommended engagement depth in the collet or tool holder before operation. Avoid side-loading forces that exceed the tool diameter-to-reach ratio for stub-length tooling. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping or wear before each use, as small-diameter carbide tools are sensitive to impact and improper runout.
