Discount YG1 55598TF 3/4″ Size, 3″ LOC, 4 Flute, YG TiAlN Futura Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill

Applications

Designed for precision finishing in cast iron, the YG1 55598TF 3/4″ Diameter, 3″ Length of Cut, 4 Flute TiAlN Futura Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill combines reach and rigidity effectively. The 3″ cutting length paired with a 3/4″ diameter ensures stable cutting conditions that minimize deflection and enhance surface finish quality. Its 30° helix angle and 4-flute configuration facilitate efficient chip evacuation and control cutting forces, making it well-suited for abrasive materials such as gray cast iron. Equipped with a TiAlN Futura coating, this tool offers strong resistance to abrasion and heat, prolonging tool life during high-speed finishing tasks. The synergy between the coating, helix angle, and flute count promotes smooth cutting while reducing edge chipping, despite the tool lacking a corner radius. This combination aligns with recommended practices for cast iron roughing and finishing, ensuring durability in short-chipping, abrasive scenarios. This end mill should not be used on non-ferrous metals due to poor compatibility with its coating. It is not intended for softer alloys where alternative coatings and geometries are preferable.

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.
