Genuine YG1 55565TF 3/16″ Size, 1-1/8″ LOC, 4 Flute, YG TiAlN Futura Solid Carbide Finishing End Mill

Applications

The YG1 55565TF solid carbide finishing end mill comes with a 3/16″ diameter and a 1-1/8″ length of cut, offering a 6.0x length of cut-to-diameter ratio that provides both rigidity and precision in deep or tight milling tasks. Its 4-flute design, paired with a 30° helix angle and TiAlN Futura coating, ensures balanced cutting action with effective chip evacuation while resisting abrasion typical in cast iron and steel machining. This combination promotes smooth finishes and extends tool life in abrasive materials. This tool is tailored for gray cast iron roughing applications, where abrasion resistance and edge durability are critical. The absence of a corner radius emphasizes finishing uses that prefer sharp edges, though users should be cautious of chipping during interrupted cuts. While the TiAlN Futura coating enhances performance in cast iron and steel, it is not suitable for non-ferrous metals. Avoid using this end mill on non-ferrous materials due to coating unsuitability, which can cause rapid wear. It is also less suited for plastics and hard materials that require different geometries and coatings for optimal results.

Features
