Sgs 31719 Square End Mill 7/16 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 31719 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in a wide range of metalworking applications. It features a 7/16 inch cutting diameter, a 5/8 inch length of cut, and a 2-1/2 inch overall length with a matching 7/16 inch straight cylindrical shank. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this two-flute tool offers excellent rigidity and edge retention. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation, and the centercutting geometry allows for both plunge and conventional milling operations. It runs right-hand cut with right-hand flute direction and an uncoated finish, making it well-suited for applications where coating buildup is a concern.

This Series 17 stub-length end mill is intended for machinists and tooling professionals working on CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and manual knee mills. The stub length configuration provides added rigidity over standard-length tools, reducing deflection in demanding cuts. Per the manufacturer workpiece material codes, this tool is rated for use across multiple material categories including hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non-ferrous materials, long-chipping steels, and high-temperature alloys. It is sold individually and packaged as a single unit.

Key Features

• 7/16 inch cutting diameter with mill diameter tolerance of +0.000 / -0.002 inches for consistent fit
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for superior hardness and wear resistance
• 2-flute design with 30-degree right-hand spiral flute for efficient chip removal
• Centercutting geometry enables direct plunge entry into workpiece material
• Stub length (5/8 inch LOC) maximizes rigidity and minimizes deflection
• Uncoated finish suitable for use across diverse workpiece material types

Compatibility

Rated for workpiece material categories H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non-ferrous materials, long-chipping steels, and high-temperature alloys. Designed as an OEM-style drop-in tooling option for standard 7/16 inch collet or end mill holder systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolroom practices. Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or end mill holder and torque the retention hardware according to the machine tool manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning production cuts.
