Sgs 36380 Corner Radius End Mill 0.5in 4 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 36380 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-performance material removal in demanding machining applications. It features a 0.5 inch mill diameter, a 1 inch length of cut, and a 0.06 inch corner radius that reduces stress concentration at the cutting edge and extends tool life. The 4-flute, variable helix geometry supports both roughing and finishing operations in a single tool. A TX coating provides thermal and wear resistance. This end mill is intended for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals operating CNC milling equipment.

The SGS 36380 is suited for machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium, as well as hard materials. Its short-length design and straight cylindrical shank make it a practical choice for general-purpose milling where rigidity and chip evacuation are priorities. The single-end, right-hand cutting configuration fits standard end mill toolholders. It is appropriate for both roughing passes and finish cuts where a consistent corner radius profile is required.

Key Features

• 0.06 inch corner radius reduces edge chipping and stress on the workpiece corner
• Variable helix geometry helps reduce harmonic vibration during cutting
• TX coating enhances wear resistance and thermal performance
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention
• Right-hand spiral flutes with right-hand cutting direction for standard CNC spindle use
• Capable of both roughing and finishing in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials

Compatibility

Compatible with standard end mill toolholders. Designed for machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials as indicated by material codes P, M, K, S, and H.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists using compatible end mill toolholders on CNC or manual milling machines. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked before inserting or removing the tool. Verify toolholder runout is within acceptable limits before beginning a cut, as excessive runout will accelerate wear on a corner radius tool. Follow the machine manufacturer and toolholder manufacturer guidelines for clamping torque and tool projection length.
