Sgs 32325 Tapered End Mill 1/8 Inch 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 32325 is a solid carbide tapered end mill designed for precision milling operations requiring a controlled taper profile. Built to Series 23 specifications, it features a 7-degree taper per side, a 1/8 inch small end diameter, and a 1 inch length of cut. The three-flute, right-hand spiral geometry with a 28-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The uncoated micrograin carbide construction provides rigidity and edge retention across a range of workpiece materials. This tool is installed and changed by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments.

The SGS 32325 suits applications in die and mold work, contour milling, and tapered slot cutting where a square end profile is required. The centercutting design allows plunge entry as well as peripheral cutting. Its 3/8 inch shank diameter and 3-1/2 inch overall length accommodate standard ER and end mill holders on vertical machining centers and CNC mills. It is rated for use on workpiece material categories including hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non-ferrous materials, general steels, and heat-resistant superalloys, corresponding to material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S.

Key Features

• 7-degree taper per side for controlled tapered profile milling
• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention
• Three right-hand spiral flutes with 28-degree helix for efficient chip removal
• Centercutting capable — supports both plunge and peripheral entry
• Uncoated finish suited for a broad range of workpiece materials
• Square end geometry for flat-bottomed tapered features

Compatibility

Compatible with workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S as designated in the input data. Designed for use in standard 3/8 inch end mill holders and collet chucks on CNC vertical machining centers and manual mills.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed by machinists using a torque wrench and appropriate end mill holder or collet chuck rated for the 3/8 inch shank diameter. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before changing tooling. Verify runout with a dial indicator after seating to maintain dimensional accuracy on tapered features. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety protocols for carbide tooling handling and disposal.
