Sgs 31225 Ball End Mill 0.1406 in 4 Flute Solid Carbide Altin

Product Description

The SGS 31225 is a 4-flute, solid carbide ball end mill designed for high-precision milling operations in demanding machining environments. With a 0.1406-inch cutting diameter and a 0.3125-inch length of cut, this tool is built for detail work in tight geometries and contoured surfaces. The AlTiN coating delivers elevated heat resistance and surface hardness, making the 31225 well-suited for dry or semi-dry cutting at elevated speeds. The micrograin carbide substrate provides the edge integrity needed when machining hard or abrasive workpiece materials. A double-end configuration extends usable tool life before replacement is required.

The SGS 31225 is used in CNC milling applications across aerospace, die and mold, medical device, and general precision machining. It is intended for professional machinists working on CNC machining centers where fine-detail profiling, slotting, or contouring is required. The stub-length profile and 3/16-inch shank diameter make it appropriate for toolholders commonly found on vertical and horizontal milling platforms. The 30-degree right-hand helix provides efficient chip evacuation in the material groups this tool is rated for.

Key Features

• 0.1406-inch (9/64-inch) ball end cutting diameter for fine-detail work
• 4-flute configuration with 30-degree right-hand spiral helix for smooth cutting action
• AlTiN coating for high heat and wear resistance in hard-material applications
• Solid micrograin carbide construction for consistent edge sharpness and rigidity
• Double-end design provides two usable cutting ends per tool
• Stub-length profile reduces deflection in short-reach milling setups

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers with toolholders accepting a 3/16-inch shank diameter. Rated for workpiece material groups H, K, M, N, P, and S per the primary material code designations in the SGS Series 14B product family.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard CNC tooling protocols. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before inserting or removing the tool from the toolholder. Confirm proper seating depth and runout within acceptable tolerance before cutting. Do not exceed the rated length of cut or apply lateral force beyond the tool geometry specifications.
