YG1 31561 5/32″ Size, 5/16″ LOC, 4 Flute, Bright Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill Crafted

Applications

This 5/32″ solid carbide finishing end mill features four flutes and a 30° slow helix angle that enhances core strength for steady, controlled cuts in aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, plastics, and other materials suited to low-to-moderate speed machining. The bright finish coating maintains a sharp, polished cutting edge without adding significant surface hardness, preserving excellent surface finish and chip evacuation in these softer materials. Its single-end design with center cutting capability allows plunge and ramp entry, expanding its versatility in finishing operations. The 5/16″ length of cut balances reach with rigidity, ensuring precise detail work without excessive deflection. Operators should select this tool when a smooth finish and accurate dimension control in non-ferrous metals or plastics is critical, especially when sharp edges and minimal material buildup on the flutes are required.

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.
