Built from micrograin solid carbide and coated with AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride), this tool delivers high heat resistance and extended tool life in demanding cutting environments. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. With a 0.2500 inch cutting diameter and a 0.3750 inch length of cut, it is suited for finishing and light-to-medium roughing passes. Licensed machinists and CNC operators in job shops, manufacturing, and maintenance environments rely on this class of end mill for tight-tolerance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is configured for right-hand cut with right-hand spiral flutes and is centercutting, allowing plunge entry into the workpiece. The 1\/4 inch shank diameter fits standard ER collet systems and compatible toolholders. The 2 inch overall length keeps the tool rigid and minimizes deflection in typical milling setups. It is well suited for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys where AlTiN coating provides a thermal barrier at the cutting edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating provides high heat resistance for dry or minimal-coolant machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute configuration for standard CNC spindle use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTight diameter tolerances: +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches on mill diameter; -0.0001 \/ -0.0004 inches on shank diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 1\/4 inch shank square end mill compatible with ER collet chucks, shrink-fit holders, and other 1\/4 inch bore toolholding systems used on CNC machining centers and manual mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator familiar with toolholder torque and runout requirements. Ensure the spindle and toolholder are clean and free of chips before seating the shank. Confirm collet nut torque is within the toolholder manufacturer's specification before beginning a cut. Never exceed the tool's rated depth of cut or feed rate for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches (1\/4 inch)\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: 0.3750 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches (1\/4 inch)\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: AlTiN\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\u003ePackage Weight\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: 12180429\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731101647154,"sku":"12180429","price":52.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d95cd252da5d1655357888d6fa6e4f4f.jpg?v=1788726973","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12180429-square-end-mill-1-4-in-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
