Hot Picks YG1 31593 1/2″ Size, 5/8″ LOC, 4 Flute, Bright Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill

Applications

This solid carbide 1/2″ finishing end mill features four flutes and a 30° slow helix angle that strengthens the core for steady, controlled cuts in aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, plastics, and general low-to-moderate speed machining. The bright finish coating supports applications where a sharp, polished cutting edge is preferred, reducing built-up edge and improving surface finish on these softer materials. Its center-cutting design allows plunge and ramping operations, while the single-end configuration provides reliable rigidity in finishing passes. The 5/8″ length of cut balances reach and stability, making it suitable for precise contouring and fine detail work. This end mill suits jobs requiring clean, sharp finishes and consistent tool performance in non-ferrous and plastic materials.

Features

• Suitable for cutting hardened & high alloy steels, steel casting, chill casting, malleable cast iron, CrNi-steels, brass, copper, aluminum with a high percentage of silicon and abrasive plastics.
