YG1 85593TC 1/2″ Size, 5/8″ LOC, 5 Flute, TiCN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill Must Have

Applications

The YG1 85593TC 1/2″ Diameter, 5/8″ Length of Cut, 5 Flute TiCN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill is engineered for rigidity and precision with a stub length design. Its 45° helix angle paired with five flutes enhances chip evacuation and surface finish quality during finishing passes on steel and similar materials. This combination effectively reduces vibration and improves dimensional accuracy when removing light radial stock. Ideal for finishing low carbon steels such as 1018 and A36, this tool aligns with best practice recommendations favoring high flute counts and variable pitch for superior surface finish. The TiCN coating provides wear resistance optimized for steel applications and extends tool life. Its center cutting geometry supports plunge cutting and slotting. Avoid application on heat resistant super alloys (HRSA ISO S) due to rapid degradation of the TiCN coating. Not designed for heavy roughing or interrupted cuts, the lack of a corner radius increases chipping risk under such conditions.

Features

• Designed to machining stainless steel, inconels and other alloys.
• The new design of stub length allows cutting at maximum speeds and feeds with minimum deflection.
• 5 Flute and 45 degree medium helix allow harmonic balance and smooth cutting.
