It features a 1\/4 inch cutting diameter with a 1-1\/2 inch length of cut and a 4 inch overall length. The two-flute spiral design runs a 40-degree helix angle with a nACRo finish, which reduces friction and extends tool life in demanding cutting applications. This is a centercutting tool, meaning it can plunge directly into a workpiece. Micrograin carbide construction provides hardness and wear resistance suited to high-speed machining. Machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, maintenance environments, and production settings are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill fits standard 1\/4 inch collets and tool holders. It is well suited for slotting, profiling, and plunge-cutting operations on CNC machining centers and manual mills. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration is the industry-standard orientation for conventional and climb milling. The nACRo coating makes it a strong candidate for dry or minimal-lubrication cutting in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where heat buildup is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for hardness and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003enACRo finish reduces friction and extends tool life in high-heat applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute — standard orientation for most milling setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMill diameter tolerance of +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches for consistent fit and finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in any standard 1\/4 inch collet or end mill holder on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC operators. Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked out before loading or removing any tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder and torque the retention hardware according to the tool holder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use, and verify runout at the tool tip with a dial indicator prior to production cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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\u003eFinish \/ Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: nACRo\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (1.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch (0.2500 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\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\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 12178829\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51735256105266,"sku":"12178829","price":81.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/01a6e57c30dbc3ac26c8112ff9a8e96b.jpg?v=1788771057","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12178829-square-end-mill-1-4-in-2-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
