With a 7-degree taper angle per side and a 5\/32-inch small end diameter, this tool produces accurate tapered walls and contoured features in a variety of workpiece materials. The 3-flute spiral geometry with a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for demanding machining applications. This tool is installed in milling machines by machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tapered end mill is suited for mold and die work, contour milling, and applications where tapered slots or walls are required. The square end profile allows for flat-bottomed cuts at the tip. With a 3\/4-inch length of cut and a 3-1\/2-inch overall length, it reaches into moderate-depth cavities while maintaining rigidity. The 3\/8-inch shank fits standard milling chucks and collet systems. Right-hand flute direction and centercutting capability expand its versatility across a range of milling strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-degree taper angle per side for accurate tapered wall geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/32-inch small end diameter with square end profile for flat-bottomed cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute spiral geometry with 30-degree helix for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows plunge entry into the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, uncoated finish suitable for a wide range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use tapered end mill compatible with standard milling machine spindles and collet systems accepting a 3\/8-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Seat the 3\/8-inch shank fully and evenly in the collet or chuck and torque the retention system per the machine manufacturer's specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cut, and confirm feeds and speeds are appropriate for the workpiece material and depth of cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches (0.7500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Angle Per Side\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 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: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\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: 12177538\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732689387826,"sku":"12177538","price":110.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a6065972517bb328aaf69febec073ce9.jpg?v=1788745745","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12177538-tapered-end-mill-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
