Sgs 31454 Ball End Mill 0.125 in 4 Flute Solid Carbide Tin

Product Description

The SGS 31454 is a double-end ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin solid carbide, it offers the rigidity and edge retention needed for demanding cuts. The tool measures 0.125 inches in diameter with a 0.25-inch length of cut, a 1/8-inch shank diameter, and a 1.5-inch overall length. A 30-degree helix angle and 4-flute spiral geometry promote efficient chip evacuation and a smooth finish. The titanium nitride (TiN) coating extends tool life by reducing friction and improving wear resistance. This stub-length end mill is suited for machinists and tool-and-die technicians working in controlled CNC or manual mill environments.

The SGS 31454 is rated for use across a broad range of workpiece materials, including hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non-ferrous metals, aerospace alloys, and superalloys, corresponding to material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. Its double-end design delivers two usable cutting ends per tool, making it a cost-effective choice for production environments where ball nose profiling, contouring, and slotting are routine operations. The stub length is appropriate for setups requiring rigidity over reach.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for superior hardness and edge retention
• TiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life across multiple material types
• 4-flute spiral geometry with 30-degree helix for efficient chip evacuation
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool
• Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction for standard CNC and manual mill spindles
• Stub length promotes rigidity in short-reach setups

Compatibility

Rated for workpiece materials corresponding to codes H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non-ferrous metals, high-temperature alloys, and superalloys. Part of the SGS Series 14B end mill family.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Verify runout and tool projection with a dial indicator before beginning any cut. Follow the machine manufacturer and tooling manufacturer guidelines for feed rate, spindle speed, and depth of cut for the specific workpiece material.
