Sgs 30315 Square End Mill 1/8 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 30315 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in a wide range of materials. The cutter runs a 1/8 inch diameter with a 1/2 inch length of cut and a 1-1/2 inch overall length. Micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and edge retention needed for tight-tolerance work. The 30-degree helix angle and two right-hand spiral flutes promote efficient chip evacuation and clean sidewall finishes. This is a single-end, bright uncoated tool suited for shops and machinists running small-diameter work on CNC mills or manual equipment.

The SGS 30315 is well suited for milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, high-temperature alloys, and composite materials. Primary workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S cover cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, non-metals, steel, and high-temperature alloys. The straight cylindrical shank at 1/8 inch diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders. This tool is appropriate for finish passes, slotting, and light profiling at small diameter where rigidity and runout control are critical.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for hardness and edge retention
• 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard CNC and manual mill setups
• Centercutting design allows plunge entry
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous and general-purpose applications
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.000/-0.002 inches for consistent fitment and accuracy

Compatibility

Compatible with standard 1/8 inch collets and end mill holders. Rated for workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and machine power locked out. Confirm collet bore size matches the 1/8 inch shank before seating the tool. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use, as small-diameter carbide tools are susceptible to breakage under excessive feed or runout. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines for speeds, feeds, and depth of cut for the specific workpiece material.
