It runs a 5-degree taper per side with a 3\/32-inch small end diameter, a 2-inch length of cut, and a 1\/2-inch straight shank. The three-flute, right-hand spiral geometry with a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining cut stability. Micrograin carbide construction gives this tool durability and edge retention in demanding machining environments. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry. Machinist and CNC operators install and run this tool in vertical machining centers and CNC milling equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for creating tapered pockets, mold cavities, die features, and draft-angle walls in production and job-shop environments. The square end geometry delivers clean floor finishes at the base of the cut. The uncoated finish makes it a cost-effective choice for shops that prefer to apply their own surface treatments or that run materials where specific coatings are unnecessary. At 4 inches overall length, it provides adequate reach for medium-depth tapered features without sacrificing rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-degree taper per side for accurate draft-angle and tapered-wall milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for edge retention and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree right-hand spiral flutes with 30-degree helix for efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting capable  -  supports plunge entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish compatible with a wide range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch shank fits standard ER and side-lock toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard tapered end mill for use in CNC vertical machining centers and manual mills equipped with a 1\/2-inch collet or toolholder.

Seat the 1\/2-inch shank fully into the collet or toolholder and torque the retention mechanism per the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before committing to a production cut. Follow your facility's lockout\/tagout procedures before any tool change.\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\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Angle Per Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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\u003eEnd Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\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 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\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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: 12177522\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739508506930,"sku":"12177522","price":249.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7829be055439e4d502117c11c3465cd3.jpg?v=1788815441","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12177522-tapered-end-mill-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
