Sgs 44773 Corner Radius End Mill 8mm 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 44773 is a solid micrograin carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-efficiency material removal in non-ferrous metal applications. It features an 8 mm cutting diameter, a 12 mm length of cut, and a 0.3 mm corner radius that reduces stress concentration at the cutting edge. The 3-flute, single-end design runs right-hand with a high helix angle of 38 degrees, promoting chip evacuation and smooth surface finish. The bright uncoated finish suits direct use in aluminum, copper, brass, and similar non-ferrous materials. This tool belongs to the SGS S-Carb 43ML series, built for roughing operations with extended reach geometry.

The SGS 44773 is suited for CNC machining centers and milling operations targeting non-ferrous metals. The extended reach configuration, with a neck diameter of 7.49 mm and a reach length of approximately 24.99 mm, allows access to deeper pockets and contoured workpiece features without sacrificing rigidity. The straight-cylindrical shank mounts directly into standard end mill toolholders. This tool is appropriate for production and job shop environments where aluminum and other non-ferrous alloys are regularly machined.

Key Features

• 8 mm cutting diameter with 0.3 mm corner radius for edge strength and reduced chipping
• 3-flute right-hand spiral design optimized for non-ferrous metal roughing
• 38-degree high helix angle promotes chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup
• Extended reach geometry with 24.99 mm reach length and 7.49 mm neck diameter
• Solid micrograin carbide construction for wear resistance and dimensional stability
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating buildup risk when cutting aluminum and soft alloys

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard end mill toolholders accepting an 8 mm straight-cylindrical shank. Intended for non-ferrous metal machining applications on CNC milling equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator following shop safety procedures. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before inserting or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully into the toolholder to the specified gauge length and torque the retention mechanism per the toolholder manufacturer guidelines. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a production cut, particularly given the extended reach geometry.
