Sgs 36350 Ball End Mill 0.625in 4 Flute Solid Carbide Altin

Product Description

The SGS 36350 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for high-performance finishing operations in metalworking applications. With a 0.625 inch cutting diameter, 1.25 inch length of cut, and four flutes, this tool delivers smooth surface finishes and efficient material removal in a single-end configuration. The variable helix and variable index geometry reduce harmonic vibration and chatter during cutting, which is critical when working in harder alloys or deep-cavity profiles. The AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in demanding cutting conditions. Machined from micrograin carbide stock, the 36350 holds tight tolerances throughout its service life.

The SGS 36350 is suited for finishing cuts in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, heat-resistant alloys, and stainless steels, corresponding to primary workpiece material codes H, K, M, P, and S. It fits standard 5/8 inch toolholders and collets used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines. The regular-length geometry and 3.5 inch overall length make it practical for general-purpose cavity work, mold finishing, and contour milling where tool reach is moderate and rigidity is a priority.

Key Features

• 0.625 inch ball end cutting diameter with 1.25 inch length of cut for finishing passes
• Variable helix and variable index design reduces chatter and harmonic vibration
• AlTiN coating provides oxidation resistance and extended tool life in high-heat applications
• Four-flute, right-hand spiral configuration for efficient chip evacuation
• Micrograin solid carbide construction maintains edge sharpness across a broad range of workpiece materials
• Single-end design with 5/8 inch straight shank for direct collet or toolholder mounting

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 5/8 inch collets and end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual mills. Compatible with workpiece material codes H, K, M, P, and S as specified by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool is secured to the correct torque specification per the toolholder manufacturer before operation. Verify runout at the cutting edge after mounting to confirm the tool seats squarely in the holder. Follow all applicable shop safety protocols and machine guarding requirements during setup and operation.
