YG-1 Expands X1-EH Premium Solid Carbide End Mill Line

Now Covering More Applications with 3-, 4-, 6- and 8-Flute Additions

  Building upon the successful 2-flute series, the X1-EH expansion consists of the long-awaited increase in flute count along with the availability of more geometry options

and imperial sized products, all targeting materials HRc 50-70.

In addition to the well-established 2-flute products for high-hard materials, YG-1 offers a product with modified flute gashing specifically

for materials in the HRc 40-60 range delivering the same high precision with better chip evacuation at higher cutting speeds.

All X1-EH tools benefit from YG-1’s well-established C-Coating, and all new tools below 6mm benefit from the same improved substrate. Also, 

all shanks below 6mm keep the high accuracy h4 shank to further emphasize the superiority of X1-EH.

To improve surface quality, the 4-, 6- and 8-flute square and corner radius milling cutters feature unequal flute indexing to minimize vibration.

A multiple helix version in the 4-flute square and corner radius tools further suppresses undesirable harmonics to improve tool life.

All ball nose variations feature all flutes coming to center (center match), allowing for faster feed rates with better surface finishes.

X1-EH has grown from 5 product series initially to now over 20 individual product series.
