It measures 3\/16 inch in diameter with a 1 inch length of cut and a 2-1\/2 inch overall length. The tool carries a nACRo finish, which improves wear resistance and thermal stability at higher cutting speeds. Four spiral flutes with a 40-degree helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The micrograin carbide substrate provides the rigidity needed to hold tight tolerances in finish and semi-finish milling passes. This end mill is intended for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on CNC machining centers and manual mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill suits applications in job shops, production machining, and maintenance environments where small-diameter, high-precision cuts are required. The centercutting geometry allows plunge entry, expanding its use to slotting, profiling, and pocket milling operations. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration is standard for conventional CNC and manual milling setups. The 3\/16 inch shank diameter matches the tool diameter, keeping the setup straightforward in standard collets or end mill holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003enACRo finish improves wear resistance and performance at elevated cutting temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle with four spiral flutes for efficient chip removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows plunge milling and direct entry into material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute — compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMill diameter tolerance of +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches for consistent dimensional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual milling machines accepting 3\/16 inch shank diameter end mills in ER collets, end mill holders, or equivalent toolholding systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before loading or unloading the tool. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth and torque the retention mechanism per the toolholder specification. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inches)\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\u003eFinish\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\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\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: 12179055\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728689561906,"sku":"12179055","price":41.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/956f5897da136d5317737e59273360e6_e2f416e5-0ec9-44b4-a331-bccab67673e4.jpg?v=1788695066","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12179055-square-end-mill-3-16-inch-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
