The 0.25 inch cutting diameter and 0.75 inch length of cut (LOC) make it well-suited for detailed work in tight geometries. Three right-hand spiral flutes with a 30-degree helix angle promote chip evacuation and reduce cutting forces. An AlTiN coating adds thermal resistance and extends tool life when cutting harder or abrasive workpiece materials. The micrograin carbide substrate provides a balance of hardness and toughness for demanding applications. Machinists and tool and die professionals are the primary users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is rated for a broad range of workpiece material codes including H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering tool steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non-ferrous metals, low-carbon steels, and high-temperature alloys. The single-end, regular-length configuration fits standard CNC machining center tool holders and manual milling machine setups. It is commonly used in mold and die work, aerospace component machining, and general precision part manufacturing where ball-nose profiles are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.25 inch cutting diameter with 0.75 inch LOC for detailed contouring work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for hardness and edge integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating for thermal resistance and extended tool life in difficult materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 right-hand spiral flutes with 30-degree helix for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end, regular-length design compatible with standard tool holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting direction; no chipbreaker or variable helix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for standard 0.25 inch shank ball end mill applications in CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting 1\/4 inch straight shank tooling.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before changing tooling. Seat the 0.25 inch shank fully into the collet or tool holder and torque to the tool holder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut to confirm proper seating and avoid premature edge wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 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\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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 -0.00035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\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: 31145\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KYOCERA SGS PRECISION TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743917343026,"sku":"31145","price":58.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9a06aa96067a1799cdd8d10679eeebcd_e316a311-4ef5-41de-9ffb-27ae2077ed25.jpg?v=1788851244","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sgs-31145-ball-end-mill-0-25-in-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
