Special Discount YG1 33555 5/16″ Size, 1/8″ LOC, 4 Flute, Bright Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill

Applications

The YG1 33555 solid carbide finishing end mill, measuring 5/16″ in diameter with a 1/8″ length of cut, provides a stub length that ensures excellent rigidity and control during precision finishing of non-ferrous materials. Its 30° helix angle paired with a bright coating and four flutes delivers smooth cutting action and reduces friction, preventing material buildup and producing superior surface finishes on brass, bronze, and acrylic plastics. This tool’s geometry and coating combination align closely with best practices for profiling and finishing brass and bronze, where the lower helix angle reduces grabbing and the bright coating preserves sharpness for clean edges. The four-flute design strikes a balance between chip evacuation and cutting stability, suitable for edge finish routing and milling in plastics without causing melting or burrs. Hard steel applications are usually better handled by coated end mills. This design is intended for precision finishing in non-ferrous and cast iron workpieces rather than heavy roughing or hard materials.

Features

• Suitable for cutting hardened & high alloy steels, steel casting, chill casting, malleable cast iron, CrNi-steels, brass, copper, aluminum with a high percentage of silicon and abrasive plastics.
