It features a 5-degree taper angle per side, a 3\/16-inch small end diameter, and a 2-1\/2-inch length of cut. The three-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with a 30-degree helix angle supports efficient chip evacuation and stable cutting at moderate to high feed rates. Micrograin carbide construction provides rigidity and edge retention in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The uncoated finish makes it suitable for use in materials where coating adhesion or heat sensitivity is a concern. Machinists and CNC operators install this tool in milling machines and machining centers for tapered pocket, draft angle, and die work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for precision die and mold work, aerospace component machining, and any application requiring a consistent taper profile in a workpiece. The square end geometry supports flat-bottomed tapered slots and pockets. The 5\/8-inch shank diameter provides solid tool holding in standard end mill holders and collet chucks. Its 4-5\/8-inch overall length allows reach into deeper cavities without sacrificing rigidity. Centercutting capability allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece without a pre-drilled pilot hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-degree taper angle per side for consistent draft and taper profile geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for edge retention and rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute right-hand spiral with 30-degree helix for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry into the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suited for applications where bare carbide is preferred\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-inch shank compatible with standard end mill holders and collet chucks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-mount tapered end mill for use in milling machines and CNC machining centers accepting a 5\/8-inch straight shank end mill holder or collet chuck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Power down and lock out the spindle before seating or removing the tool from the holder. Ensure the shank is fully engaged in the collet or holder to the recommended grip depth before tightening. Inspect the cutting edges and shank for damage before each use and confirm runout with a dial indicator when tight tolerances are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4-5\/8 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\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\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\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 12177529\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739395326258,"sku":"12177529","price":409.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/318821bcb9ebebde24520a910928aa25.jpg?v=1788814040","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12177529-tapered-end-mill-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
