Micro 100 1/4 in Carbide End Mill

The Micro 100 GEM-250-4 is a solid carbide square end mill with a 0.25 in milling diameter and four flutes. It is intended for machinists and fabricators who need a general-purpose uncoated tool for milling operations in a variety of materials. The straight shank matches the cutting diameter at 1/4 in and the overall length is 2 1/2 in.

Installing the end mill in a collet or holder

Secure the 1/4 in shank in a compatible collet or end mill holder with adequate clamping force to prevent slippage during cutting. Because the tool is uncoated, chip evacuation relies on proper coolant or air blast; inadequate evacuation often leads to built-up edge and premature wear. Runout should be minimised at the holder to avoid chatter and poor surface finish.

Checks before ordering

Verify that your machine spindle accepts a 1/4 in shank and that the 2 1/2 in overall length fits within your work envelope and tool changer limits. Confirm the 0.75 in length of cut provides sufficient reach for your part geometry without excessive overhang. This tool is not suited for buyers who require a coated cutter for high-temperature alloys or abrasive composites.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the end mill is cutting correctly after setup?

Check for a smooth finish and consistent chip formation when milling a 0.25 in diameter slot at 0.75 in depth.
