Sgs 35596 Corner Radius End Mill 3/8 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 35596 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-performance material removal in non-ferrous metal applications. It features a 3/8 inch cutting diameter, a 1-1/2 inch length of cut, and a 0.09 inch corner radius that reduces stress concentrations at the cutting edge and extends tool life. With 3 right-hand helical flutes at a high helix angle and a coarse pitch geometry, the 35596 is configured for roughing operations. Overall length is 4 inches with a matching 3/8 inch straight cylindrical shank. The uncoated bright finish suits aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous workpiece materials where coating adhesion or chemical reaction is a concern.

This end mill is suited to CNC machining centers and manual mills handling non-ferrous metals in production and job-shop environments. The single-end, long-length configuration makes it appropriate for pocketing, profiling, and slotting passes where reach beyond a standard-length tool is required. It fits directly into standard end mill holders. The Series 43CR designation places it within SGS's corner radius roughing line, which targets high material removal rates on aluminum alloys, copper alloys, and similar soft non-ferrous materials.

Key Features

• 0.09 inch corner radius reduces edge chipping and stress concentration during roughing passes
• Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance in non-ferrous cutting applications
• 3 right-hand helical flutes with high helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation
• Coarse pitch geometry suited for aggressive roughing material removal rates
• Uncoated bright finish compatible with non-ferrous metals where reactive coatings are undesirable
• Straight cylindrical shank fits standard end mill holders without modification

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard end mill holders. Primary workpiece material is non-ferrous metal (material code N), including aluminum alloys, copper alloys, and similar materials. UNSPSC Code 27112803.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool changer or drawbar is de-energized before seating or removing the tool. Verify holder bore size matches the 3/8 inch shank diameter and that runout is within acceptable limits before beginning a cut. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut for the workpiece material and machine rigidity.
