Applications

Optimized for finishing steel components, the YG1 55600TC 1″ Diameter, 3″ Length of Cut, 4 Flute TiCN Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill features a solid 3.0x length-to-diameter ratio that balances reach with rigidity. The 30° helix angle and 4-flute geometry facilitate smooth chip evacuation and stable cutting forces, enhancing surface finish and dimensional precision in free-machining steel. Its TiCN coating synergizes with the helix and flute design to minimize built-up edge and reduce wear, extending tool longevity during general milling. Although lacking a corner radius, the tool concentrates cutting forces on sharp edges, requiring careful feed management but improving finish quality without typical chipping issues. This end mill is not suitable for heat-resistant superalloys (HRSA ISO S) because of coating unsuitability, which can cause premature failure. While capable of machining cast iron, non-ferrous, and stainless steel, its optimal performance is in steel, where geometry and coating align with recommended finishing practices.

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.
