Sgs 00826 Square End Mill 1/64 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 00826 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in demanding machining environments. With a 1/64 inch (0.0200 inch) cutting diameter and a 1/16 inch (0.0600 inch) length of cut, this tool is built for tight-tolerance work in small-feature applications such as micro-slot milling, engraving, and detail contouring. The micrograin carbide construction delivers hardness and edge retention well beyond standard high-speed steel tooling. Machinist and CNC operators install this end mill in vertical machining centers and CNC routers where precise, repeatable cuts at micro-scale are required.

This end mill is suited for high-precision work on metals, composites, and engineering plastics in both production and prototype environments. The 1/8 inch straight-cylindrical shank makes it compatible with standard collet chucks and toolholders commonly found in small-part machining setups. Its centercutting geometry allows plunge entry as well as conventional peripheral milling. The right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute configuration is the standard orientation for most CNC milling operations. This is a single-end tool sold individually.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for high hardness and wear resistance
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilling
• 30-degree helix angle with spiral flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard CNC milling orientation
• Uncoated finish suitable for applications where coating is not required or where regrinding is anticipated
• Series 1610 regular-length configuration for general-purpose micro-milling

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or standard tooling selection for CNC machining centers and manual mills using 1/8 inch collet or toolholder systems in micro-milling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked before inserting or changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or toolholder and torque the retention mechanism per the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Handle micro-diameter end mills with care — carbide is brittle and susceptible to chipping if dropped or mishandled during setup.
