With a 0.5 inch cutting diameter, a 1 inch length of cut, and a 3 inch overall length, this tool fits standard 0.5 inch shank toolholders and collets. The two-flute geometry and 40-degree helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces. The nACRo coating provides enhanced wear resistance and thermal stability, extending tool life in demanding cuts. Micrograin carbide construction delivers the rigidity and edge retention required for finishing and semi-finishing passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers, manual knee mills, and multi-axis equipment where a standard-reach, short-flute tool is appropriate. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, making it versatile for slot milling, pocket milling, and contour work. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation match the most common spindle configurations in job shops and production environments. Machinists, tool and die makers, and CNC operators working in ferrous and non-ferrous materials will find this a practical general-purpose tool for regular-length applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003enACRo finish coating for improved wear resistance and heat tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree spiral helix angle promotes chip evacuation and smooth cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry into workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard CNC and manual mill spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMatched shank and cutting diameter at 0.5 inches for straightforward toolholder setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 0.5 inch ID collets, end mill holders, and shrink-fit toolholders commonly found on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. Secure the shank fully within the toolholder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Verify runout at the cutting diameter before beginning a cut, as excessive runout accelerates edge wear on carbide tooling. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for spindle speed and feed rate when setting up this end mill for a new application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: nACRo\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 \/ -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.307 pounds\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: 12178765\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51729706451250,"sku":"12178765","price":119.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/fbc1bbdc80384b92e2fce959f116e564.jpg?v=1788708128","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12178765-square-end-mill-0-5in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
