It features a 5\/8 inch cutting diameter, a 2-1\/4 inch length of cut, and a TiAlN coating that provides thermal resistance and extended tool life at elevated cutting speeds. With 4 helical flutes at a 30-degree helix angle and a right-hand cutting direction, the tool is built for aggressive yet controlled milling in production environments. A Weldon flat shank provides positive drive and minimizes slippage under load. This end mill is installed and operated by machinists and CNC tooling professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 5879555 is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, and cast iron as primary workpiece materials. Secondary applications include hardened materials, high-temp alloys, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals. The single-end configuration and regular-length geometry make it a practical choice for general-purpose slot milling, peripheral milling, and profiling operations on vertical machining centers and CNC mills. The 5 inch overall length provides adequate reach for most standard setups without sacrificing rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating provides heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous cutting applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 right-hand helical flutes at 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction delivers rigidity and wear resistance over high-speed steel alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeldon flat shank ensures positive drive and reduces pullout risk under high feed loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable, allowing plunge entry as well as conventional milling paths\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end design in the I4S series for consistent OEM geometry and replaceable tooling workflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with standard 5\/8 inch tool holders and Weldon flat collet chucks used on CNC vertical machining centers and manual knee mills.

Confirm spindle runout is within acceptable tolerance before cutting to avoid premature edge wear. Power down and lock out the spindle before tooling changes. Verify compatible cutting parameters for the workpiece material before first use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch (0.6250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/4 inches (2.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch (0.6250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\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: Helical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Weldon Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: I4S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardened Materials, Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Aluminum and Non-Ferrous, Steel, High-Temp Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fractional Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.656 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WIDIA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5879555\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WIDIA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67912306917682,"sku":"5879555","price":292.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/559aeb55d436c4ba723853148c2e375a_798fb6f8-d1bd-4c15-8def-28a743843808.jpg?v=1791232586","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/widia-5879555-square-end-mill-5-8-in-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
