Sgs 39363 Square End Mill 1/2 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide Tin

Product Description

The SGS 39363 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. It features a 0.5 inch mill diameter with a 1 inch length of cut and a 30-degree helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The tool is TiN coated, which extends tool life by increasing surface hardness and reducing friction during cutting. With 2 flutes and a right-hand cutting and flute direction, it is suited for general-purpose slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry into the workpiece. Micrograin carbide construction delivers the hardness and wear resistance needed in demanding production environments.

This end mill is built for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where tight tolerances and consistent performance are required. The straight cylindrical shank diameter of 0.5 inches fits standard collet chucks and end mill holders commonly found in shop environments. Its regular length designation and 3 inch overall length make it well-suited for general-purpose work in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys, consistent with the primary workpiece material codes listed for this tool.

Key Features

• 0.5 inch mill diameter with mill diameter tolerance of +0.000/-0.002 inches for predictable sizing
• 1 inch length of cut in micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 30-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation in spiral flute geometry
• TiN coating increases surface hardness and extends tool life
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilling
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle compatibility
• Shank diameter tolerance of -0.0001/-0.0004 inches for secure tool holding

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 0.5 inch collet chucks, end mill holders, and tool holders on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. Compatible with primary workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering a range that includes hardened materials, cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, steel, and high-temperature alloys.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician following shop safety procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Torque the collet or set screw to the tool holder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout at setup before engaging the workpiece to protect both the tool and the part.
