With a 0.5-inch mill diameter, 2-inch length of cut, and a 45-degree high helix angle, this tool delivers efficient material removal and clean surface finishes in finishing applications. The four-flute, single-end geometry combined with an AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life when cutting hard and abrasive workpiece materials. The micrograin carbide substrate adds toughness and wear resistance. This end mill is used by machinist and tooling professionals in production shops and job shops running CNC vertical and horizontal machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SGS 70459 is suited for finishing operations across a range of workpiece material categories including hardened steels, cast irons, stainless steels, carbon and alloy steels, and superalloys, corresponding to material codes H, K, M, P, and S. Its long-series classification and 4.5-inch overall length make it well suited for deeper cavities and extended-reach setups where a standard-length end mill would not reach. The variable index flute spacing helps reduce harmonic chatter during cut, improving surface finish quality in finishing passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating provides high-temperature oxidation resistance for dry and semi-dry cutting in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree high helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable index flute geometry minimizes chatter for improved surface finish in finishing passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide substrate delivers consistent edge sharpness and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLong-series overall length of 4.5 inches supports deeper cavity and extended-reach applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute direction for standard CNC spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 1\/2-inch collet or end mill holder tooling on CNC machining centers.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the 0.5-inch shank fully into a matched collet or end mill holder and torque the retention device per the toolholder manufacturer specification. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before beginning production cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 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\u003eNeck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.95 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: High\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.00000 to -0.00043 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Codes\u003c\/strong\u003e: H, K, M, P, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 70459\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KYOCERA SGS PRECISION TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743172002098,"sku":"70459","price":196.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a27f8645d4cfb4489d15ba10f96e52e3_18978e4a-d99f-42d2-83ac-f4d7efea0c7a.jpg?v=1788843504","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/sgs-70459-ball-end-mill-0-5in-4-flute-altin-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
