Reference Cutting Ranges

Preliminary Vc and fz ranges from the supplied source. Adjust for diameter, actual hardness, coating, engagement, holder condition and machine rigidity.

WORKPIECE HARDNESS Vc fz
Carbon / Alloy Steel <30 HRC 120–180 m/min 0.02–0.12 mm/tooth
Pre-Hardened Steel 30–45 HRC 80–120 m/min 0.02–0.08 mm/tooth
Hardened Steel 45–55 HRC 40–70 m/min 0.01–0.05 mm/tooth
Data Note: The original page labeled its detailed RPM and feed table as “2-Flute,” so those values were not transferred to this 4-flute page. Calculate spindle speed and feed from the confirmed diameter, Vc, fz and four cutting edges before machining.

Product & Application FAQs

Answers to common questions about selecting and applying the HRC55 4-Flute Solid Carbide Square End Mill for Steel and Alloy Steel.

What materials is this square end mill designed to machine?
It is primarily configured for carbon steel, alloy steel and confirmed pre-hardened steel applications. The exact coating and cutting parameters should be selected according to grade, hardness, operation and machine rigidity.
Why use the 4-flute configuration for this application?
Four flutes provide more cutting edges and a stronger core than many two-flute designs, supporting productive side milling and finishing. Full-width slotting requires controlled chip evacuation and suitable cutting data.
What milling operations are suitable for this square-end design?
The square-end profile is suitable for side milling, shoulder milling, pocketing, profiling, finishing and controlled slotting. It supports flat-bottom features and 90° shoulders. Ramping and plunge capability should be confirmed according to the exact center-cutting geometry.
What does the HRC55 series designation mean?
HRC55 indicates the series positioning and upper target range under selected machining conditions. It is not a universal guarantee for every steel grade, operation or machine setup.
Which coating or surface treatment should be selected?
AlTiN, TiSiN or another application-specific coating can be selected according to steel grade, hardness, cutting temperature and machining conditions.
What machining conditions should be reviewed before use?
Review the exact workpiece grade and hardness, tool diameter, flute length, tool overhang, axial and radial engagement, holder runout, machine rigidity, chip evacuation and coolant or lubrication strategy. Starting parameters should be verified through a controlled machining trial.

Ordering & Customization FAQs

Information for distributors, tooling brands and customers requesting standard or application-specific configurations.

What standard sizes are available?
Standard metric cutting diameters and selected standard or long-series lengths are available. Confirm the complete dimensional combination and coating before ordering.
Can non-standard dimensions or geometry be manufactured?
Yes. Non-standard diameters, flute lengths, neck reaches, shank dimensions, overall lengths, helix geometry, edge preparation and coatings can be reviewed. Custom dimensions and tolerances are confirmed before production.
Are OEM marking and private-label packaging available?
Laser marking, tool codes, custom labels, protective tubes and private-label packaging can be reviewed according to the available marking area, confirmed packaging specification and order quantity.
What information is required for an accurate quotation?
Please provide the steel grade and hardness, dimensions, machining operation, axial and radial engagement, coating preference and quantity. A tool drawing or component drawing is recommended for custom projects.
