Titan Usa TC97524 Square End Mill 3/8 in 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC97524 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 0.375 inch cutting diameter, 1.75 inch length of cut, and 4-inch overall length, this single-end tool delivers consistent performance in profile milling, slotting, and contouring applications. The 4-flute geometry with a 30-degree helix angle and TiCN coating helps manage heat and extend tool life in demanding cutting conditions. The micrograin carbide substrate provides edge retention and resistance to chipping during interrupted cuts. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional CNC and manual milling setups.

This end mill is suited for job shops, tool rooms, and production machining environments. The 0.375 inch shank diameter makes it compatible with standard ER and TG collet chucks, side-lock holders, and hydraulic tool holders commonly found on vertical machining centers, CNC knee mills, and manual Bridgeport-style machines. Center-cutting capability allows for direct plunge entry, expanding its utility in die and mold work, fixture machining, and general-purpose material removal. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers working in precision manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• 0.375 inch cutting diameter with 1.75 inch length of cut for deep slot and profile work
• Solid micrograin carbide construction for edge stability and wear resistance
• TiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in steel and cast iron
• 30-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation and smooth cutting action
• Center-cutting design allows direct plunge milling without a pilot hole
• Upcut flute geometry pulls chips away from the workpiece surface

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or new-install square end mill for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines accepting 3/8 inch shank tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the shank fully within the tool holder to the recommended gauge line and torque collet nuts per the holder manufacturer specifications using the correct spanner wrench. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning cuts. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in an e-stop or locked-out state before changing tooling.
