YG1 33565 3/16″ Size, 3/8″ LOC, 4 Flute, Bright Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill Trusted Brand

Applications

Ideal for small diameter milling, the YG1 33565 3/16″ Size, 3/8″ Length of Cut, 4 Flute Bright Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill delivers a stable and accurate cutting performance. Featuring a 3/8″ cutting length paired with a 3/16″ diameter, it provides control and rigidity for precise finishing and profiling, particularly effective with non-ferrous metals. The 30° helix angle, four-flute geometry, and bright coating combine to form a sharp, low-friction cutting edge that minimizes grabbing and enhances surface finish when machining free-cutting brass and bronze. This end mill is especially suited for tasks demanding fine detail and smooth edges, such as milling acrylic and plastic, where its bright, polished coating helps prevent burrs and melting. Its double-ended design increases tool utility and lifespan. The lack of a corner radius reduces edge chipping risks, but users should avoid interrupted cuts that could impose stress on the cutting edges. Coated end mills are typically the better choice for hard steels. The tools design matches recommended settings for non-ferrous metals and plastics, and it is unsuitable for harder or ferrous materials requiring different coatings and geometries.

Features
