Secure Checkout YG1 33555TN 5/16″ Size, 1/8″ LOC, 4 Flute, TiN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill

Applications

Compact and precise, the YG1 33555TN solid carbide finishing end mill has a 5/16″ diameter and 1/8″ length of cut, featuring a 0.4x length-to-diameter ratio that improves rigidity in tight machining tasks. Its 4-flute design paired with a 30° helix angle and TiN coating balances chip evacuation with cutting edge strength, supporting efficient milling of free-machining steels and general finishing applications. This end mill aligns with recommended combinations for free-machining steel, utilizing its geometry and coating to provide effective slotting and finishing capability. The lack of a corner radius focuses its use on smooth contouring rather than interrupted cuts, reducing the risk of edge chipping during continuous milling. Its center cutting feature enables plunge cutting, adding versatility. Avoid employing this tool on heat-resistant superalloys (HRSA ISO S), as the TiN coating is not well suited and deteriorates quickly. It is not designed for heavy roughing or materials needing specialized coatings, ensuring consistent performance within its intended steel and cast iron applications.

Features
