YG1 85579TN 5/16″ Size, 7/16″ LOC, 5 Flute, TiN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill In Demand

Applications

Offering a stub length that promotes rigidity and precision, the YG1 85579TN 5/16″ size, 7/16″ length of cut, 5 flute TiN solid carbide finishing end mill is tailored for steel finishing tasks. The 45° helix angle and five-flute design deliver smooth cutting action, reducing vibration and enhancing surface finish. This flute count and size combination supports light radial stock removal, well suited for low carbon steels like 1018 and A36. Paired with a TiN coating, the helix and flute geometry improve wear resistance and chip evacuation, helping to maintain sharp edges and reduce built-up edge during finishing passes. The lack of a corner radius concentrates cutting forces on sharp edges, boosting dimensional accuracy but necessitating careful handling to avoid chipping in interrupted cuts. This tool is unsuitable for heat-resistant superalloys (HRSA ISO S) due to coating unsuitability, which leads to accelerated wear. Travers Tool Co provides this end mill as a dependable choice for steel finishing and secondary applications on non-ferrous, stainless steel, and cast iron within the TiN coating’s constraints.

Features

• Designed to machining stainless steel, inconels and other alloys.
• The new design of stub length allows cutting at maximum speeds and feeds with minimum deflection.
• 5 Flute and 45 degree medium helix allow harmonic balance and smooth cutting.
