Sgs 02497 Square End Mill 0.093in 4 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 02497 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. With a 0.093-inch cutting diameter and a 0.279-inch length of cut, this single-end mill is built for tight-tolerance slot milling, profiling, and finishing passes in hardened and abrasive materials. The 4-flute, right-hand spiral configuration at a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining a smooth cut finish. An AlTiN coating extends tool life in high-heat cutting environments, making this end mill well-suited for dry or near-dry machining of ferrous alloys, stainless steel, and hardened steels.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where small-diameter precision tooling is required. The straight cylindrical shank measures 0.125 inches in diameter, fitting standard collets and tool holders in that size range. The regular-length geometry and 1.5-inch overall length make it appropriate for standard-reach milling operations where extended reach tooling is not required. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry into workpieces. Machinists and tool and die professionals in job shops, production facilities, and maintenance machining environments are the primary users.

Key Features

• 0.093-inch cutting diameter with a tight mill diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.001 inches for precision fitment
• 4-flute right-hand spiral flute design at 30-degree helix angle for smooth chip flow
• AlTiN coating for extended tool life in high-temperature and abrasive cutting conditions
• Micrograin solid carbide substrate for rigidity and wear resistance
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling entry
• Straight cylindrical shank with h6 shank diameter tolerance for secure collet holding

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard CNC or manual milling machines accepting a 0.125-inch straight cylindrical shank collet or tool holder.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety procedures. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into a clean, undamaged collet or tool holder and torque the nut or set screw per the tool holder specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning cuts, particularly given the small diameter of this tool.
