Buy Direct YG1 83573TF 1/4″ Size, 1/2″ LOC, 3 Flute, YG TiAlN Futura Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill

Applications

The YG1 83573TF 1/4″ diameter, 1/2″ length of cut solid carbide finishing end mill offers rigidity and precision in a compact form. Its 3-flute design paired with a 50° helix angle and YG TiAlN Futura coating promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduced friction, improving finish quality on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and heat-resistant superalloys. This combination supports high-speed finishing where surface integrity is paramount. Supplied by Travers Tool Company with a single end and center-cutting capability, this tool enables plunge cuts and versatile machining. The stub length of cut helps minimize deflection, enhancing dimensional accuracy in tight tolerance applications. The lack of a corner radius focuses on straight edge cutting, requiring careful feed control to prevent chipping. Do not use this end mill on non-ferrous materials, as the TiAlN Futura coating is not ideal and may degrade quickly. Despite the high helix angle, it is not suited for aluminum finishing, so selecting a tool matched to the workpiece material is essential for optimal results.
