Cleveland C60282 Carbide End Mill 5/16 in

This Cleveland C60282 carbide end mill has a 0.3125 in milling diameter and a square profile with four flutes. The length of cut is .5 in and the overall length is 2 1/2 in. The shank diameter matches the cutting diameter at 5/16 in. It is uncoated and non-coolant through.

Practical limits of solid carbide tooling

Solid carbide provides high hardness and wear resistance for milling operations. The uncoated surface performs well in non-ferrous materials and lower-temperature cuts. Without coolant-through capability, chip evacuation relies on external flood or mist coolant. The straight shank requires a compatible collet or holder for secure clamping.

What to check before ordering

Verify that your machine spindle accepts a 5/16 in straight shank and that the toolholder provides adequate grip length. Confirm the .5 in length of cut suits the depth of your milling passes. Ensure your workpiece material and cutting parameters are compatible with an uncoated carbide geometry. Check that external coolant delivery can reach the cutting zone effectively.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 5/16 in square end mill with a 0.5 in length of cut or a different size?

Select the C60282 when you need a 0.3125 in diameter carbide cutter with a 0.5 in flute length and a matching 5/16 in shank for standard tool holders.

What does the 0.5 in length of cut mean when the tool is in the spindle?

It allows a maximum cutting depth of 0.5 in per pass before the shank contacts the workpiece, suited for shallow pockets or profiling.

How does the straight shank interface limit the tool in practice?

The plain 5/16 in shank fits collets and end-mill holders but offers no drive flats, so torque transmission relies entirely on clamping force.
