With a 0.125 inch (1\/8 inch) mill diameter and a 0.5 inch length of cut, this single-end tool is built for tight-tolerance work in a wide range of workpiece materials. The micrograin carbide construction delivers hardness and edge retention that high-speed steel tools cannot match. A 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. The uncoated finish makes this tool a straightforward choice when coating is not required for the application at hand. Machinists and toolroom professionals are the primary users of this end mill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and contouring operations that require a ball-nose geometry to produce a radiused floor or complex 3D surface. The 3-flute configuration balances chip clearance and rigidity, making it effective in both roughing passes and light finishing cuts. The 1\/8 inch shank diameter fits standard collet chucks and end mill holders commonly found on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. The right-hand cutting and right-hand spiral flute direction are consistent with conventional milling center spindle rotation. Compatible workpiece material codes include H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for improved edge retention and hardness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall-nose geometry for radiused floors and 3D contour milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute design balances chip clearance with tool rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute direction for standard spindle use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish; Series 5B regular length classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S as specified by the manufacturer, covering cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, aluminum alloys, steel, and high-temperature alloys.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing or seating the tool in the collet. Verify runout with a dial indicator after seating to protect the cutting edge and maintain dimensional accuracy. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for feed rate, spindle speed, and depth of cut for the specific workpiece material being machined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.00000 to -0.00032 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SGS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30516\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KYOCERA SGS PRECISION TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729477992754,"sku":"30516","price":34.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b0f7a0f342bf1be676227c1f4dbc23ba_f82b9e8f-ddb5-4703-b464-d654b33233b9.jpg?v=1788705075","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sgs-30516-ball-end-mill-0-125-in-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
