YG1 55588TN 7/16″ Size, 3″ LOC, 4 Flute, TiN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill Affordable

Applications

Providing extra reach with a 6.86x length-to-diameter ratio, the YG1 55588TN 7/16″ Size, 3″ Length of Cut, 4 Flute, TiN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill delivers rigidity and precision for deeper milling tasks. Its 30° helix angle combined with four flutes creates a balance of efficient chip evacuation and cutting edge strength, supporting smooth finishes in free-machining steel and general milling operations. The TiN coating improves wear resistance and reduces built-up edge, extending tool life in steel applications. This tool corresponds with recommended combinations for low carbon steel slotting where four flutes optimize chip flow and cutting stability. Without a corner radius, it requires careful handling to avoid chipping during interrupted cuts but enables precise square corners in finishing. Avoid using this end mill on HRSA (ISO S) materials because the TiN coating is not a good match and will degrade rapidly. Though it can machine cast iron, non-ferrous, and stainless steel, its optimal performance and tool life are primarily achieved with steel workpieces.
