Sgs 36873 Corner Radius End Mill 0.0938 in 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 36873 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for precision material removal in demanding machining environments. With a 0.0938-inch mill diameter, a 0.0100-inch corner radius, and four flutes arranged in a right-hand spiral configuration, this tool delivers both roughing and finishing capability in a single pass. The TX coating provides enhanced wear resistance and heat management at the cutting edge. Variable helix and variable index geometry reduce harmonic chatter, improving surface finish and tool life. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in job shops or production environments will find this tool well-suited to tight-tolerance applications.

The SGS 36873 is intended for use in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium, as well as hard materials. With a 0.2813-inch length of cut, a 1.5-inch overall length, and a 0.125-inch straight-cylindrical shank, it fits standard end mill toolholders and is appropriate for high-speed CNC milling centers running precision components. The single-end configuration and standard-length flute make it a practical choice for slots, profiles, and contours where corner integrity is critical.

Key Features

• 0.0100-inch corner radius reduces stress concentrations and extends part life at machined edges
• Variable helix and variable index geometry minimize chatter and improve surface finish
• TX coating enhances tool life when cutting ferrous alloys, superalloys, and titanium
• Micrograin solid carbide substrate provides rigidity and wear resistance in hard materials
• Right-hand cutting, right-hand flute direction with normal pitch for predictable chip evacuation
• Compatible with standard end mill toolholders via 0.125-inch straight-cylindrical shank

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard end mill toolholders. Suitable for machining steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, titanium, and hard materials. Part of the SGS ZPCR series.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool changer or spindle is locked before changing tooling. Verify shank seating depth and toolholder runout before starting a cut, as this tool diameter is sensitive to concentricity errors. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque specifications for the collet or set screw used.
