Sgs 30463 Square End Mill 9/16 Inch 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 30463 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision metal removal in demanding machining applications. It features a 9/16-inch cutting diameter, a 1-1/8-inch length of cut, and a 3-1/2-inch overall length. The two-flute spiral design with an AlTiN coating provides heat resistance and extended tool life in high-temperature cutting environments. The micrograin carbide substrate supports rigidity and edge retention across a wide range of workpiece materials. This end mill is centercutting, allowing plunge entry, and is configured for right-hand cut with right-hand flute direction. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers in job shop and production environments.

The SGS 30463 is suited for milling operations on a broad range of materials including cast iron, non-ferrous metals, carbon steels, alloy steels, heat-resistant superalloys, and stainless steels, corresponding to material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. Its regular-length geometry makes it appropriate for peripheral milling, slotting, and profiling operations where reach requirements fall within standard parameters. The straight-cylindrical shank fits standard collet and end mill holder tooling systems commonly found in vertical machining centers and manual knee mills.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention
• AlTiN coating for thermal resistance in dry and semi-dry cutting
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• 30-degree helix angle with spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.000 / -0.002 inches for precise fit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide square end mill compatible with standard 9/16-inch straight-cylindrical shank collets and end mill holders used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard tooling change procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Verify collet or holder bore matches the 9/16-inch shank diameter and that the tool is seated to the appropriate gauge length before tightening. Do not exceed the tool manufacturer's recommended speeds and feeds for the target workpiece material and coating type.
