Built from micrograin solid carbide with a bright\/uncoated finish, it features a 0.5 degree taper angle per side and a 3-flute, right-hand spiral geometry with a 30 degree helix angle. The square end configuration allows flat-bottom cutting, and the center-cutting capability supports direct plunge entry. With a small end diameter of 3\/32 inches and a 1\/8 inch shank diameter, this tool is suited for detailed work in tight geometries. Machinists and toolroom operators install this end mill in CNC machining centers and manual mills for tapered slot, draft-angle, and mold-cavity applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tapered end mill is used in applications where a consistent draft angle or tapered wall profile is required, such as mold and die work, core and cavity machining, and precision part manufacturing. The 3\/4 inch length of cut and 2-1\/4 inch overall length make it appropriate for moderate-depth passes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where micrograin carbide provides the necessary edge retention and rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5 degree taper angle per side for precise draft and tapered-wall milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute right-hand spiral geometry with 30 degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design supports direct plunge entry without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare end profile enables flat-bottom cuts in slots and pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish suitable for use with or without coolant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard taper shank end mill for use in CNC machining centers, knee mills, and toolroom milling machines accepting a 1\/8 inch round shank via collet or end mill holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety protocols. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and at rest before loading or unloading the tool. Secure the 1\/8 inch shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder torqued to the machine manufacturer's specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before commencing cuts, as excessive runout accelerates wear on small-diameter carbide tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inches (0.1940 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (0.7500 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Angle Per Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12177435\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739671986482,"sku":"12177435","price":58.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/092a4dd26b64e4a6e6464a740c1fdd09.jpg?v=1788817591","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12177435-tapered-end-mill-solid-carbide-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
