Sgs 46476 Corner Radius End Mill 16mm 4 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SGS 46476 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-performance material removal in demanding machining environments. Built to the ZH1M series specification, it features a 16 mm cutting diameter, a 32 mm length of cut, and a 1.5 mm corner radius for controlled edge blending and reduced stress concentration at the cutting corner. The variable helix geometry and AlTiN (Ti-NAMITE-A) coating combine to manage heat, reduce chatter, and extend tool life in both roughing and finishing operations. This is a single-end, right-hand cut tool with a Weldon flat shank and micrograin carbide construction throughout.

The 46476 is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium, as well as hard secondary workpiece materials. Its short-length profile and 16 mm shank diameter make it a practical selection for rigid setups in vertical and horizontal machining centers. The Weldon flat shank seats securely in standard end mill toolholders, making it appropriate for production environments where tool security under heavy radial loads is a priority.

Key Features

• 16 mm cutting diameter with 1.5 mm corner radius for edge protection and smooth workpiece transitions
• Variable helix geometry reduces harmonic chatter during aggressive cuts
• AlTiN coating (Ti-NAMITE-A designation) provides high heat resistance and oxidation protection
• 4-flute, right-hand spiral configuration supports both roughing and finishing in a single tool
• Micrograin solid carbide substrate for hardness and wear resistance across primary and hard workpiece materials
• Weldon flat shank ensures positive retention in standard end mill toolholders

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard end mill toolholders accommodating a 16 mm shank diameter with Weldon flat geometry. Primary workpiece materials include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium. Hard materials are listed as a secondary application.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for end mill toolholder torque and runout specifications. Always power down and lock out the spindle before changing or setting tooling. Confirm shank seating depth and Weldon flat alignment against the setscrew before operation. Do not exceed the manufacturer-recommended speeds and feeds for the target workpiece material and depth of cut.
