Sgs 34943 Ball End Mill 0.375 in 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 34943 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for finishing operations in non-ferrous metal applications. It features a 0.375-inch mill diameter, a 0.5-inch length of cut, and a 3-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with a 38-degree helix angle. The long-series geometry includes a 0.625-inch neck length and a 1.125-inch reach length, giving it extended reach capability for deeper cavity work. The micrograin carbide construction and uncoated finish make it well suited for high-speed finishing passes where edge sharpness and dimensional accuracy are priorities. Single-end design with a 0.375-inch shank diameter and 3.0-inch overall length.

This end mill is used in CNC milling operations targeting non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, brass, copper, and similar materials. The long-neck, extended-reach profile makes it practical for die and mold work, pocket finishing, and contoured surface machining where standard-length tools cannot reach. It is run as a single-end finishing tool and does not support coolant-through delivery. Machinists and CNC operators in job shops, mold shops, and production machining environments are the primary users.

Key Features

• 0.375-inch mill diameter with micrograin solid carbide construction for edge retention during finishing
• 3-flute, right-hand spiral at 38-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation in non-ferrous materials
• Extended reach design with 0.625-inch neck length and 1.125-inch reach length for deep-cavity access
• Uncoated finish optimized for non-ferrous metal workpiece materials (Material Code: N)
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.00035 inches for precise dimensional control
• Series 43 long-series geometry, single-end configuration

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC milling applications with non-ferrous metal workpiece materials. The 0.375-inch shank diameter with h6 shank tolerance is compatible with standard ER and straight-bore collet systems accepting 3/8-inch shanks.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed by machinists or CNC operators into a compatible collet or tool holder rated for the 0.375-inch shank diameter. Confirm runout and tool holder clamping force before initiating cutting passes. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for the material and machine spindle specifications. Inspect the cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use, as uncoated carbide tools are sensitive to improper handling and impact.
