It features a 0.5 inch cutting diameter, a 1.25 inch length of cut, and a 3.25 inch overall length. The four-flute, variable-helix geometry reduces chatter and harmonic vibration during aggressive cuts. An AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating increases surface hardness and heat resistance, extending tool life in demanding materials. The micrograin carbide substrate provides the toughness and wear resistance required for production-grade milling. Licensed machinists and CNC operators install this end mill in standard 0.5 inch straight-shank tool holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, titanium alloys, and high-temperature superalloys, corresponding to workpiece material codes H, K, M, P, and S. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, making it viable for slot milling, pocket milling, and contour operations. The spiral flute and variable index geometry help evacuate chips efficiently and reduce the risk of tool deflection in deep-pocket applications. It fits production environments running tight tolerances, with a mill diameter tolerance of plus 0.0000 to minus 0.0020 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable-helix, variable-index flute geometry reduces chatter and vibration during high-feed operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in ferrous and exotic alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting capability allows direct plunge entry for slot and pocket milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide substrate for high edge integrity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand spiral flute with straight-cylindrical shank for standard collet or set-screw holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeries Z1 designation confirms regular-length geometry for general-purpose production milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with workpiece material codes H (hardened steels), K (cast iron), M (stainless steel), P (steel), and S (titanium and high-temperature alloys).

The spindle must be fully stopped and the machine placed in an e-stop or lockout state before changing tooling. Verify tool holder runout before engaging a cut, as excessive runout will accelerate wear on the cutting edges. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable OSHA standards for tooling torque and setup procedures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.25 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\u003eHelix Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndex Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.0000 \/ minus 0.0020 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.00000 \/ minus 0.00043 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: 0.5 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: 36598\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KYOCERA SGS PRECISION TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51734971711794,"sku":"36598","price":185.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1a468a90af3c23de63f2e5d5d9f81c33.jpg?v=1788768738","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sgs-36598-square-end-mill-0-5-in-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
