It features a 3-inch cutting diameter and accepts a standard R8 shank for use with compatible milling machine spindles. With a maximum depth of cut of 0.656 inches and an overall length of 5-37\/64 inches, this toolholder is built for productive material removal on vertical knee mills and similar platforms. The insert-holding method uses a screw-lock design, and the cutter accommodates 5 inserts for balanced, multi-edge cutting performance. Installation and operation are handled by machinists and tool-and-die tradespeople.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for square-shoulder milling applications in job shop, maintenance machining, and production environments where an R8 spindle interface is standard. The TPG cutter style is compatible with TPC 32, TPG 32, and TPU 32 insert families, giving operators flexibility in insert selection based on material and finish requirements. It is appropriate for use on ferrous and non-ferrous stock in both manual and CNC-capable knee mill setups where R8 tooling is the accepted standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch cutting diameter for wide material removal passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eR8 shank interface compatible with standard knee mill spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut: 0.656 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-insert, 5-flute configuration for balanced cutting load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-lock insert holding for secure, repeatable insert seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with TPC 32, TPG 32, and TPU 32 insert styles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eUses TPC 32, TPG 32, and TPU 32 insert styles.
