With a 0.25 inch cutting diameter, 0.75 inch length of cut, and a 2.5 inch overall length, this four-flute tool is built for precision metal removal in demanding shop environments. The micrograin carbide substrate and AlTiN finish provide heat and wear resistance at elevated cutting speeds. A variable helix and variable index geometry reduce harmonic chatter, improving surface finish and tool life. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SGS 36596 is suited for milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as high-temperature alloys. Its Series Z1 designation places it in SGS's general-purpose to high-performance category, appropriate for profiling, slotting, and peripheral milling. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, adding versatility in programming. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard collet chucks and end mill holders used on vertical machining centers and CNC mills. Primary workpiece material codes listed by the manufacturer are H, K, M, P, and S, covering materials such as hardened steels, cast iron, stainless steels, carbon steels, and superalloys.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating extends tool life in high-temperature cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable helix and variable index geometry reduce vibration and chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design enables direct plunge milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand spiral flute configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank fits standard collet and end mill holder systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit cutting tool for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 0.25 inch straight cylindrical shank.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the tool from any collet or holder. Verify collet bore size matches the 0.25 inch shank diameter within specified tolerances before tightening. Follow the machine manufacturer and tooling manufacturer guidelines for runout inspection and proper torque on collet nut fasteners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0012 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.00000 \/ -0.00035 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7000 - 0.8000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Z1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SGS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36596\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KYOCERA SGS PRECISION TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51746830483762,"sku":"36596","price":67.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7737c65095d8679e1a3932017b9cdb09.jpg?v=1788873885","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sgs-36596-square-end-mill-1-4-inch-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
