Sgs 00829 Square End Mill 0.023 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 00829 is a solid carbide square end mill engineered for high-precision milling in tight-tolerance applications. With a 0.023-inch cutting diameter and a 0.069-inch length of cut, this tool is built for micro-milling operations where dimensional accuracy is critical. The micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and edge retention needed when working with difficult materials at small scales. Featuring a 30-degree helix angle and two right-hand spiral flutes, it promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining a clean, square shoulder cut. The bright, uncoated finish suits applications where coating interaction with the workpiece is a concern.

This end mill is suited for precision machining environments including tool and die shops, aerospace component work, medical device manufacturing, and any operation requiring small-diameter profiling, slotting, or contouring. The straight-cylindrical 0.125-inch shank accommodates standard collet systems. At 1.5 inches overall length, it fits compact setups without sacrificing rigidity. It is a single-end, regular-length tool from the SGS Series 1610 lineup, appropriate for CNC machining centers and manual mills running small-feature work.

Key Features

• 0.023-inch cutting diameter with a mill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 / -0.0008 inches for tight-tolerance work
• Solid carbide micrograin construction for superior hardness and edge retention
• 30-degree right-hand helix with two spiral flutes for effective chip evacuation
• Centercutting capable, allowing plunge entry into the workpiece
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for use where coatings are not desired
• Straight-cylindrical 0.125-inch shank compatible with standard collet systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual milling machines equipped with collet systems accepting a 0.125-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and power is off before inserting or removing the end mill from the collet. Use the correct collet size for the 0.125-inch shank and torque the collet nut per the machine manufacturer specification. At this diameter, runout control is critical — inspect collet condition and clean the taper before each setup to avoid tool deflection or breakage.
