OSG Hy-Pro Carb VGM5-0270 1 in 5-Flute TiAlN Carbide Square End Mill

The Hy-Pro Carb VGM5-0270 is a new, USA-made solid carbide square end mill from the HY-PRO CARB line, part number VGM5-010000-L as read from the package label. It features 5 flutes with a black TiAlN-family physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating applied uniformly over the flute geometry, consistent with the deep matte-black finish visible across the entire cutting zone. The 5-flute configuration provides increased core strength, improved surface finish, and higher feed-rate capability compared to standard 4-flute designs, making it suited for semi-finishing and finishing passes in steels and stainless steels on CNC machining centers using standard straight-shank toolholders or ER/SK collet chucks. The 1-inch cutting diameter is matched by a 1-inch cylindrical shank, visible in the photos as an uncoated ground steel surface, and the extra-long flute length is consistent with the 'L' suffix in the part number designating a long-reach or extra-long series geometry.
