Titan Usa TC99833 Square End Mill 1/2 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The TITAN USA TC99833 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for high-performance material removal in milling operations. Built from micrograin carbide and finished with an AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating, this tool handles demanding cuts in ferrous and hardened materials where heat resistance matters. It runs a 3-flute, right-hand cutting and flute configuration with a 30-degree helix angle, producing efficient chip evacuation on upcut passes. The 1/2 inch diameter and 1-1/4 inch length of cut make it a practical choice for general slot milling, profiling, and pocketing on CNC machining centers and manual mills. It is center-cutting, allowing direct plunge entry into workpieces.

This end mill is suited for job shop and production machining environments where consistent tool life and surface finish quality are priorities. The single-end geometry and 1/2 inch shank diameter allow straightforward installation into standard ER or set-screw style toolholders. The AlTiN coating extends tool life when cutting alloy steels, stainless, and cast iron at elevated speeds. It is installed by machinists and CNC operators in both prototype and production settings.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating provides thermal protection during high-speed cuts in ferrous alloys
• 3-flute geometry balances chip clearance with surface finish quality
• 30-degree right-hand helix promotes smooth cutting action and upcut chip evacuation
• Center-cutting design allows direct plunge milling without pre-drilling
• Single-end tool with matched 1/2 inch mill and shank diameter for easy toolholder fitment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide end mill for use in CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and manual milling machines accepting a 1/2 inch shank diameter toolholder.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. The spindle must be fully stopped and the machine powered down before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the toolholder to the recommended engagement depth and torque the retention screw or collet nut per the toolholder manufacturer specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before initiating a cut, as excessive runout accelerates tool wear and reduces surface finish quality.
