Trusted Brand YG1 59579 5/16″ Size, 2-1/8″ LOC, 5 Flute, Bright Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill

Applications

This solid carbide 5-flute finishing end mill with a 45° high helix angle excels in machining aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, and plastics. The high helix geometry promotes effective chip evacuation and shearing action, enabling smooth finishes on low-to-moderate speed operations where a bright, polished cutting edge is preferred. Its single end and center cutting design allow for precise plunge cutting and ramping, while the 5/16″ diameter and 2-1/8″ cutting length provide a balance of rigidity and reach for fine detail work. The absence of a corner radius focuses on producing clean, sharp edges essential for finishing passes. Operators should select this tool when machining softer non-ferrous materials requiring a sharp, bright finish and precise dimensional control.

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.
