YG1 UGMG20917 1/2″ Size, 1″ LOC, 6 Flute, Y-Coating Solid Carbide Square End Mill Big Sale

Unequal index reduces chatter for high speed & trochoidal milling

Applications

With a 1/2″ diameter and 1″ length of cut, the YG1 UGMG20917 solid carbide square end mill is engineered for moderate-depth milling tasks demanding rigidity and precision. Its 6-flute configuration, combined with a 45° helix angle and Y-Coating, ensures efficient chip evacuation and superior wear resistance, boosting performance in challenging materials such as steel, stainless steel, hard materials, and heat-resistant superalloys. The synergy between its geometry and coating minimizes vibration and enhances surface finish, making it ideal for finishing and semi-finishing operations where accuracy is paramount. Center-cutting capability allows for plunge cutting, increasing versatility in complex machining. The stub length ratio contributes to rigidity, reducing deflection during heavy cuts. This end mill should not be used on non-ferrous materials, as the Y-Coating is not well matched and will deteriorate quickly. Lacking a corner radius, edge chipping prevention depends on careful feed and speed control, especially during interrupted cuts or when working with hard materials.
