Titan Usa TC29616 Roughing End Mill 1/4 Inch Solid Carbide

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC29616 is a solid carbide roughing end mill designed for aggressive material removal in milling applications. Built with 4 flutes and a fine-pitch spiral geometry, it clears chips efficiently while reducing chatter and cutting forces. The AlTiN coating improves heat resistance and extends tool life in ferrous and hardened materials. The square end profile delivers clean shoulder cuts and slot milling passes. With a 1/4 inch cutting diameter and 1.5 inches length of cut, this tool suits both shallow and intermediate-depth passes in a long-series configuration. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers in production and job shop environments.

This end mill is suited for use on vertical machining centers, CNC knee mills, and manual milling machines where a 1/4 inch shank toolholder or collet is available. The long-series length and AlTiN coating make it appropriate for applications involving alloy steels, stainless steels, cast iron, and similar ferrous workpiece materials where heat generation at the cutting edge is a concern. Single-end construction means the tool is replaced rather than flipped when the cutting edge is worn.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating for high-heat and ferrous material applications
• 4-flute fine-pitch spiral geometry reduces cutting forces and chatter
• Square end profile for shoulder milling and full-slot passes
• Center-cutting design allows plunge entry
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle operation
• Long-series length provides reach for deeper workpiece features

Compatibility

Designed for use in any 1/4 inch ID end mill holder, collet chuck, or shrink-fit toolholder on vertical machining centers or CNC milling machines that accept a 1/4 inch straight shank.

Installation Notes

Install in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and torque the retention mechanism according to the toolholder manufacturer specification. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation to confirm proper seating. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety procedures when setting speeds and feeds.
