Bassett MSE-4 Series Solid Carbide General Purpose End Mill, TiAlN Coated, 4 Flute, 30 Degrees Helix, Radius Corner End, 1" Cutting Length, 7/16" Cutting Diameter, 2-1/2" Length (Pack of 1)

Bassett MSE Series general-purpose single-end solid carbide end mill with square nose end geometry for steel, cast iron, non-ferrous materials. 10 percent cobalt submicron grain carbide substrate. 30 degrees right-hand spiral, right-hand cut helix designed for maximum chip clearance. 4-flute end mills are most commonly used in profiling and in harder materials; stiffer construction results in minimal deflection. They also provide good surface finishes and wear-resistant characteristics for excellent size control.

• Solid carbide tools offer long tool life and faster cutting speeds than other substrates, but are more brittle and must be used with rigid toolholding systems
• Titanium aluminum nitride coatings become self-lubricating when used at very high speeds, making them ideal for cutting without coolant ("dry machining")
• Round shanks allow use with a wide variety of toolholding systems
• When run in a counterclockwise direction (right-hand cut) spiral fluted tools evacuate chips up and out of the cut to reduce clogging
• 4-flute end mills are most commonly used in profiling and in harder materials; stiffer construction results in minimal deflection
• Made in the USA
