Accupro 12181328 Square End Mill 0.2362 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12181328 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for high-performance milling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 0.2362-inch (6.00 mm) mill diameter and a 0.748-inch length of cut, this tool delivers precise material removal in tight geometries. The AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating provides heat resistance and extended tool life at elevated cutting speeds. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Intended for use by machinists and tool-and-die professionals operating CNC machining centers or manual knee mills.

This end mill is suited for profiling, slotting, and peripheral milling operations in production and job-shop environments. The 2-flute configuration is well-matched to applications requiring good chip clearance, such as milling softer steels, aluminum alloys, and similar materials. The regular length designation and 0.2362-inch shank make it a practical choice for standard tool holders in both horizontal and vertical milling setups.

Key Features

• 0.2362-inch (6.00 mm) mill diameter with a mill diameter tolerance of +0.000 / -0.002 inches
• 0.748-inch (19.00 mm) length of cut for solid reach into pockets and slots
• AlTiN finish for elevated heat resistance and longer tool life at high cutting speeds
• 40-degree spiral helix angle for efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces
• Centercutting design allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece
• Right-hand cut, right-hand flute configuration — standard for most CNC and manual mill setups
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or production end mill for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 6.00 mm (0.2362-inch) shank diameter with ER or straight-bore tool holders.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety protocols. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Verify tool holder runout with a dial indicator before operation to avoid premature tool wear or breakage. Observe manufacturer-recommended speeds and feeds for the work material and coating type.
