Sgs 30482 Ball End Mill 0.1875 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 30482 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations across a wide range of materials. It features a 0.1875 inch (3/16 inch) mill diameter, a 0.625 inch length of cut, and a 2 inch overall length with a 3/16 inch shank diameter. The two-flute geometry and 30-degree right-hand helix promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life in demanding applications. This end mill is manufactured from micrograin carbide stock and is suited for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

The SGS 30482 Series 3B ball end mill is built for profiling, contouring, and finish milling of complex 3D surfaces. It is rated for workpiece materials across multiple categories, including hardened steels, cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, steel alloys, and high-temperature superalloys. It is a single-end, regular-length tool with a right-hand cutting direction, making it a standard choice for general-purpose milling setups in both job shop and production environments.

Key Features

• 0.1875 inch ball nose diameter for accurate radius profiling and 3D contouring
• AlTiN coating for high heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous and exotic alloys
• Micrograin solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance
• 30-degree right-hand helix with spiral flutes for efficient chip flow
• Two-flute design balances chip clearance and cutting edge strength
• Single-end configuration with 0.625 inch length of cut and 2 inch overall length

Compatibility

Compatible with workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering hardened steels, cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, general steels, and high-temperature superalloys. Fits standard 3/16 inch collets and tool holders on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the tool. Verify the collet or tool holder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank, and confirm runout is within acceptable limits before beginning a cut. Refer to the tooling manufacturer and machine builder documentation for recommended speeds and feeds based on workpiece material and depth of cut.
