YG1 55593TC 1/2″ Size, 3″ LOC, 4 Flute, TiCN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill Buy Online

Applications

The YG1 55593TC 1/2″ diameter, 3″ length of cut solid carbide finishing end mill is engineered to deliver rigidity and precision in deeper milling operations, featuring a 6.0x length-of-cut to diameter ratio. Its four-flute geometry, combined with a 30° helix angle and TiCN coating, provides balanced cutting action that excels in free-machining steel and cast iron by reducing vibration and enhancing surface finish quality. Additionally, it supports profiling and finishing in non-ferrous metals like brass and bronze, where the moderate helix angle controls tool engagement effectively. The synergy between the tool’s geometry and TiCN coating improves chip evacuation and wear resistance, making it suitable for general milling tasks in steel and related alloys. Since this end mill lacks a corner radius, operators must exercise caution to prevent edge chipping during interrupted cuts. This product aligns with recommended best combinations for free-machining steel, supporting a broad range of milling applications. Avoid applying this tool to heat-resistant superalloys (HRSA ISO S) because the TiCN coating is not ideal and will lead to rapid tool wear. Travers Tool Company offers this end mill as a dependable choice for machinists requiring longer reach and finishing precision in steel and compatible materials.
