Cleveland C61052 2-Flute Carbide End Mill
The Cleveland C61052 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for general-purpose milling applications. It features a 0.5 in cutting diameter and a matching 1/2 in shank diameter for direct toolholder fitment. Machinists and maintenance technicians use this uncoated tool for slotting and profiling in a variety of workpiece materials.
Installing the 0.5 in shank end mill
Secure the 1/2 in shank firmly in a collet or end mill holder rated for that diameter, ensuring minimal runout before starting the spindle. Because the tool is non-coolant-through, external flood or mist coolant must be directed at the cutting zone for heat evacuation. Vibration or chatter usually indicates excessive overhang, insufficient clamping force, or incorrect speed and feed parameters for the material.
0.625 in length of cut defines reach
The 0.625 in length of cut determines the maximum axial depth per pass and the deepest slot or pocket achievable without multiple steps. An overall length of 2 1/2 in keeps the tool compact for rigid setups in smaller machining centres. Buyers needing deeper cuts in a single pass should select a tool with a longer flute length.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 0.5 in carbide end mill is cutting correctly after installing it in my pneumatic tool?
Check for smooth, chatter-free cuts and measure the finished slot width against the 0.5 in milling diameter. A clean square profile with no built-up edge on the uncoated flutes shows it is working as intended.
What comes with the C61052 end mill and what must I supply separately?
The box contains the single 2-flute carbide square end mill only. You must provide a compatible 0.5 in shank tool holder, collet or chuck, plus cutting fluid if your application requires lubrication.
Which version of the Cleveland carbide end mill should I choose for a 0.625 in depth of cut?
Select the C61052 model with 0.5 in milling diameter, 0.625 in length of cut and 2 1/2 in overall length. Its straight, non-coolant-through design matches general-purpose slotting and profiling at that depth.
