Accupro 12177317 Corner Radius End Mill 0.6mm 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12177317 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for precision milling operations requiring tight tolerances and fine detail work. With a 0.6 mm mill diameter and a 0.05 mm corner radius, this tool is built for micro-milling applications where accuracy and tool integrity are critical. The 2-flute, right-hand cutting geometry with a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation in confined cuts. The bright/uncoated finish suits a wide range of materials where coating is not required. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on CNC machining centers will find this end mill suited to close-tolerance detail work in small-scale components.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC milling operations involving small-diameter, high-precision cuts. Its 0.6 mm length of cut and 5 mm reach length make it appropriate for shallow slot milling, contouring, and profiling in tight geometries. The 4 mm shank diameter provides secure tool holding in standard collet and end mill holders. The centercutting design allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece. Extended reach geometry supports access to recessed features without interference from the tool holder.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision micro-milling
• 0.05 mm corner radius reduces stress concentration and improves edge durability at small diameters
• 30-degree helix angle promotes chip flow and reduces cutting forces
• Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry into the workpiece
• Extended reach design with 5 mm reach length for access to recessed or deep-pocket features
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose machining applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and milling machines equipped with standard collet systems or end mill holders accepting a 4 mm shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for tool holding and runout verification. Confirm collet or chuck bore is clean and free of debris before seating the shank. At micro-mill diameters, even small amounts of runout can cause premature tool failure or dimensional error, so TIR should be verified before commencing cuts. Always power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling.
