Built from micrograin solid carbide, this tool delivers high rigidity and wear resistance in demanding cutting applications. It features 3 right-hand spiral flutes with a 30-degree helix angle, a 2-degree taper per side, and is center-cutting capable, allowing plunge entry into the workpiece. The uncoated finish suits applications where coating interaction with the workpiece material is a concern. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with CNC machining centers or manual mills will find this end mill well suited to contouring, profiling, and draft-angle milling tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tapered end mill is used in metalworking environments where draft angles or tapered wall features are required on milled parts. Typical applications include mold and die machining, aerospace component profiling, and general precision machining of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The square end geometry allows it to cut flat-bottomed pockets and tapered sidewalls in a single tool path. It is appropriate for both production and job-shop environments running rigid, well-supported setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for superior hardness and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 right-hand spiral flutes with a 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-degree taper per side for consistent draft-angle geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable  -  supports direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare end geometry produces flat-bottomed features with tapered walls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for a broad range of metalworking materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style solid carbide tapered end mill for use in standard CNC machining centers and manual milling machines accepting a 9\/16 inch round shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. The 9\/16 inch shank should be secured in a compatible collet or end mill holder torqued to the machine manufacturer's specification. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and machine power is isolated before changing tooling. Verify runout at the tool tip before beginning a production cut to confirm proper seating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Angle Per Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 degrees\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: 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: 12177492\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743774900530,"sku":"12177492","price":257.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/07cb9f22a39d1dec6eeaa3d48997837e.jpg?v=1788849617","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12177492-tapered-end-mill-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
