Sgs 04011 Ball End Mill 0.075 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 04011 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal, composite, and hardened material applications. With a 0.075-inch cutting diameter and a 0.225-inch length of cut, this tool is built for fine detail work, contour milling, and slotting in tight geometries. The micrograin carbide construction provides rigidity and edge retention under demanding conditions. A 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. The uncoated finish suits applications where coolant compatibility or re-sharpening is a priority. Machinists and toolroom operators working in CNC and manual milling environments are the primary users of this tool.

The SGS 04011 is suited for light to medium material removal in precision machining environments. Its 0.075-inch diameter and 1.5-inch overall length make it well matched for detailed contouring, die and mold work, and finish passes on complex 3D profiles. The 1/8-inch shank fits standard collets and end mill holders common in both full-size CNC machining centers and smaller benchtop mills. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional milling setups.

Key Features

• 0.075-inch ball nose diameter for fine detail and contour milling
• Solid micrograin carbide construction for edge stability and wear resistance
• 2-flute, spiral flute design promotes chip flow in confined cuts
• 30-degree helix angle reduces cutting pressure and vibration
• Single-end configuration with 1/8-inch shank for broad collet compatibility
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0008 inches for close-tolerance work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard single-end ball end mill with a 1/8-inch shank, compatible with collet chucks and end mill holders sized for 1/8-inch shanks on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolholding procedures. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and machine power is locked out before loading or changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or end mill holder to the recommended insertion depth before torquing the retention nut. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation, as excessive runout on a 0.075-inch diameter tool will accelerate edge wear and affect surface finish.
