It features a 0.055-inch cutting diameter with a 0.165-inch length of cut (LOC) and a 30-degree helix angle that promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. The two-flute geometry provides adequate chip clearance when working in softer metals, plastics, and composites. The micrograin carbide substrate delivers hardness and edge retention at small diameters where tool deflection and breakage are primary concerns. This tool is used by machinists and toolmakers on CNC milling machines and machining centers where fine-detail work requires tight tolerances and consistent performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SGS 00861 is suited for precision profiling, die and mold work, and finish passes on contoured features in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Its compact diameter makes it appropriate for engraving, fine-feature pocket work, and intricate part geometries where larger tooling cannot reach. The uncoated bright finish is compatible with a broad range of materials and cutting fluid chemistries. It is a single-end tool, meaning the cutting geometry is on one end only, and it is not regrindable to the same specification once worn. Machinists working in job shops, aerospace component manufacturing, and precision medical part production will find this tool applicable to their fine-tolerance requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.055-inch ball nose cutting diameter with a diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0008 inches for tight dimensional control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction provides hardness and wear resistance at small tool diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip flow and reduces cutting force at the tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-flute spiral design balances chip clearance and cutting edge strength for small-diameter work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated bright finish suits a wide range of materials and is compatible with most cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/8-inch shank diameter fits standard collets and tool holders commonly found in CNC machining centers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide ball end mill for CNC machining centers and manual mills equipped with standard 1\/8-inch collet or tool holder systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before changing tooling. Seat the 1\/8-inch shank fully into a properly sized collet or end mill holder and torque to the tool holder manufacturer's specification. At small diameters, minimize runout by using a precision collet; excessive runout accelerates edge chipping and reduces tool life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.055 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.165 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0008 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1625\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SGS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00861\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KYOCERA SGS PRECISION TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755918328114,"sku":"00861","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ea0c98288ab11b5becf67313556e482b.jpg?v=1788961585","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sgs-00861-ball-end-mill-0-055-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
