Accupro 12180934 Ball End Mill 0.125 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12180934 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal and hardened material applications. With a 0.125 inch cutting diameter and a 0.125 inch length of cut, this two-flute tool is built for small-feature profiling, contouring, and finishing passes. The AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life at elevated cutting speeds. The micrograin carbide substrate adds rigidity and edge retention, making it well suited for harder workpiece materials. Machinists and tooling specialists working in job shops, aerospace, and precision component manufacturing will find this end mill suited to tight-tolerance finish work.

This end mill fits CNC machining center applications where small-diameter ball nose geometry is required for 3D contouring, radius profiling, and die or mold finishing. The 0.25 inch shank diameter accommodates standard ER and end mill holders commonly found in vertical and horizontal machining centers. The 4 inch overall length provides reach for moderate-depth cavity work without sacrificing rigidity. The single-end, right-hand cutting configuration is the standard setup for conventional CNC milling operations.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention in hard materials
• AlTiN coating for thermal resistance and extended tool life at high cutting speeds
• Ball nose geometry for 3D contouring, radius profiling, and die or mold finishing
• Two-flute design balances chip clearance and edge strength for small-diameter cuts
• 30-degree right-hand spiral helix promotes smooth cutting action and efficient chip evacuation
• Single-end construction with a 0.25 inch shank for use in standard end mill holders

Compatibility

Designed as a standard single-end ball nose end mill for use in CNC machining centers and manual knee mills equipped with end mill holders or collet chucks accepting a 0.25 inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and the machine in a safe lockout state. Ensure the shank is fully seated and properly torqued in the holder before operation. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use. Follow the tooling manufacturer and machine builder guidelines for speeds, feeds, and depth of cut appropriate to the workpiece material and machine capability.
