Sgs 30108 Ball End Mill 0.0625 in 4 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 30108 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in a wide range of materials. With a 0.0625-inch mill diameter and a 0.1875-inch length of cut, this tool is suited for fine detail work, profiling, and contouring in ferrous and non-ferrous applications. It features four flutes with a 30-degree right-hand spiral helix and a variable index design that reduces chatter and improves surface finish. Micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for consistent performance in demanding cuts. This is a single-end tool with an uncoated finish and a 0.125-inch shank diameter.

The SGS 30108 is used in CNC machining centers and manual mills for small-diameter profiling, slotting, and 3D contouring tasks. The 0.0625-inch diameter makes it well suited for intricate features, tight radii, and fine detail passes in mold work, prototype machining, and precision part manufacturing. The primary workpiece material codes listed for this tool are H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering hardened steels, cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, steel, and heat-resistant alloys. The regular-length geometry and 1.5-inch overall length keep the tool rigid in typical setup depths.

Key Features

• 0.0625-inch ball end diameter for fine detail and tight-radius contouring
• Four-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with 30-degree helix angle
• Variable index flute spacing reduces vibration and improves finish quality
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for hardness and edge retention
• Single-end design with uncoated finish, compatible with a broad material range
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.002 inches for consistent sizing

Compatibility

Suited for use in CNC machining centers and milling machines accepting a 0.125-inch straight shank. Compatible workpiece material codes include H, K, M, N, P, and S as specified by the manufacturer, covering steels, stainless steels, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed and changed by machinists or CNC operators using an appropriate collet or end mill holder sized for a 0.125-inch shank. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down or in a safe lockout state before changing tooling. Set tool length offset in the machine controller before cutting. Avoid side loads that exceed the rated length of cut, as the small diameter increases deflection risk at extended engagement depths.
