Accupro 12181194 Square End Mill 1 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12181194 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. It features a 1 inch cutting diameter, a 1.5 inch length of cut, and a 6 inch overall length, placing it in the long-reach category with a 4.25 inch reach length. The 40-degree helix angle and spiral flute geometry promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Constructed from micrograin solid carbide, this end mill delivers the rigidity and edge retention required for demanding milling applications. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC operators in job shops and production environments.

This end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations where extended reach is needed to access deep features or tall workpiece walls. The uncoated micrograin carbide substrate performs well in non-ferrous metals, plastics, and certain ferrous materials where coating is not required. The centercutting design allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece material. The 1 inch straight shank is compatible with standard collets and end mill holders used on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.

Key Features

• 1 inch cutting diameter with a mill diameter tolerance of plus 0.000 inches, minus 0.002 inches for precise fitment
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for superior hardness and edge retention
• 40-degree helix angle with spiral flute geometry for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting capability allows direct plunge milling into material
• Long-reach configuration with 4.25 inch reach length for accessing deep features
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation standard for conventional CNC setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1 inch collets and end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines. Verify holder and spindle compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the end mill. Seat the shank fully into the tool holder to the recommended engagement depth and verify runout with a dial indicator before initiating a cut. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards for tool change procedures.
