Built from micrograin carbide and left bright\/uncoated, it carries a 1\/8 inch mill diameter with a 3\/16 inch length of cut and a 40-degree high helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation in softer, gummy alloys. The extended reach configuration, combined with a reduced neck diameter of 0.1170 inches, allows access to deeper features without sacrificing rigidity. This is a single-end, right-hand cutting and right-hand flute tool with a ball nose geometry suited to 3D contouring, profiling, and detail work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers, high-speed milling operations, and precision die work where clean surface finishes in aluminum, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous alloys are required. The 1\/4 inch straight-cylindrical shank fits standard ER collet chucks and end mill holders common in shop environments. The extended reach length of 1\/4 inch makes it a practical choice for pocketing, slotting, and contour milling where standard-length tools cannot reach the workpiece feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for tight tolerances and long tool life in non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree high helix angle promotes chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces in aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall nose geometry supports 3D contouring, radial profiling, and blended surface work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtended reach design with 0.1170 inch neck diameter accesses deep pockets and narrow features\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting capability allows plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy with no coating buildup affecting the 0.0625 inch nose radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills equipped with 1\/4 inch straight-shank collet chucks or end mill holders.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before loading or changing the tool. Seat the 1\/4 inch shank fully in the collet or holder and tighten to the toolholder manufacturer's specified torque range. Verify runout at the tool tip before beginning a cut, as excessive runout at this diameter will accelerate wear and degrade surface finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch (0.1250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/8 inches (2.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1170 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum and Non-Ferrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0012 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: E5975\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: YG-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38601\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"YG-1","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67907285156146,"sku":"38601","price":46.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/yg-1-38601-ball-end-mill-1-8-in-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
