1/2" replaceable diamond-coated tips — 4 and 6 flute productivity from a slim heat-shrink holder
- 0.500" replaceable tip end mill: diamond coated (DCC) cutting head on a 1/4" h6 shank, 1/2" flute length, 1-1/2" OAL — intended to be held in a heat-shrink holder (pg 113)
- 4 and 6 flute productivity compared to the 2 flutes available from insert end mills this size
- Replaceable tips used in slim holders give extended reach without extra costs — replace the worn tip, keep the holder
- Four stock configurations: 6-flute square end (P820-201143-1), 4-flute square end (P820-201142-1), 4-flute .030" corner radius (P820-201206-1), 4-flute ball end (P820-201145-1)
- For graphite electrodes and composites; conventional, ramping, high-performance and 3-D roughing through finishing; run dry, cold air or spray mist
- Graphite speeds: soft 1000–2000 SFM, medium 750–1500 SFM, hard 500–1250 SFM; 1/2" roughing chipload 0.0100–0.0120 in soft graphite down to 0.0040–0.0060 finishing in hard graphite (pg 124)
- Standard tolerances: cutting dia +0.001/−0.001", shank h6, flute length ±0.060", OAL ±0.060"
- Related Lightning line (Crystallume 2019 catalog): threaded-tip end mills 3/8"–1" dia (threads T06/T08/T12/T15, square or ball) compatible with Ingersoll tool holders, plus P820 deep-cavity and extended-shank graphite end mills

About this series
P820 Replaceable Tip End Mills
4- and 6-flute productivity in a replaceable-tip end mill.
RobbJack's diamond-coated 1/2" Replaceable Tip End Mill is intended to be held in a heat-shrink holder and gives 4- and 6-flute productivity compared to the 2 flutes available from insert end mills of this size. It runs on a 1/4" h6 shank, and several square-end, corner-radius, and ball-end configurations are available from stock. Replaceable tips are used in slim holders for extended reach without extra costs, and the tool is targeted at graphite electrodes and composites.
- Diamond Coated (DCC) for graphite and composites
- 4- and 6-flute productivity versus 2-flute insert end mills of the same size
- 1/2" cutter on a 1/4" h6 shank, held in a heat-shrink holder
- Square-end, corner-radius, and ball-end stock configurations
- Replaceable tips used in slim holders for extended reach without extra cost
Graphite and Composites. Dry, Cold Air, or Spray Mist. Applications: conventional, ramping, high performance, 3-D, roughing, semi-finishing, finishing.
Best for

Recommendations are computed starting points based on typical conditions — not guarantees of performance, tool life, or fitness for your application. Machining involves inherent risk: you are solely responsible for safe operation, for verifying every parameter against your machine, spindle, toolholding, workholding, and guarding limits, and for proving all parameters on a test cut before production. RobbJack Corporation assumes no liability for tool breakage, machine damage, scrapped parts, production loss, or personal injury arising from use of these recommendations.
