Accupro 12177432 Square End Mill 1in 6 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12177432 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. It features a 1-inch mill diameter, a 2-inch length of cut, and 6 spiral flutes for efficient material removal and chip evacuation. The tool carries a 45-degree helix angle and an AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating, which improves heat resistance and extends tool life in high-speed cutting applications. Machining professionals and CNC operators install this end mill for demanding ferrous and non-ferrous milling tasks where surface finish and dimensional accuracy matter.

This end mill suits vertical and horizontal milling setups in production and job-shop environments. Its single-end, right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction make it a standard choice for conventional and climb milling on machining centers. The 4-inch overall length and 1-inch shank diameter accommodate standard toolholders used in industrial CNC and manual milling applications. Micrograin carbide construction supports tighter tolerances and higher surface speeds compared to standard carbide grades.

Key Features

• 1-inch mill diameter with a mill diameter tolerance of +0.000 / -0.002 inches for precision fitment
• 6 spiral flutes for aggressive material removal and improved chip clearance
• 45-degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish
• AlTiN coating provides thermal barrier for extended tool life in high-speed applications
• Centercutting design allows plunge milling capability
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide square end mill for standard 1-inch shank toolholders used in CNC machining centers and manual vertical mills.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the toolholder collet or set screw is torqued to the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the tool and holder for runout before beginning the cut.
