Cleveland C60482 Carbide End Mill Bright 45 deg .25 in .75 in LOC

Cleveland C60482 Carbide End Mill

The Cleveland C60482 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for general milling operations. It features a 45 degree helix angle and a bright uncoated finish suitable for a variety of workpiece materials. The cutter has a 0.25 inch milling diameter and a 1/4 inch shank diameter for standard tool holder compatibility. It is intended for machinists and fabricators requiring a versatile cutting tool for slotting and profiling tasks.

Sustained Load Behaviour

The carbide construction provides high hardness and wear resistance during extended cutting cycles. A 45 degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces vibration when the tool is engaged for prolonged periods. The uncoated surface performs reliably in applications where coolant use is restricted or unavailable. This geometry helps maintain dimensional accuracy and surface finish over long production runs without premature edge degradation.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

Carbide tooling generates heat concentrated at the cutting interface during normal milling operations. Effective heat management relies on proper feed rates, spindle speeds and external coolant or air blast strategies. The uncoated substrate allows chips to slide freely, reducing frictional heat buildup compared to coated alternatives in certain materials. Machine spindle power consumption will vary based on the specific workpiece material and the depth of cut applied.
