It features a 5\/16 inch cutting diameter, a 1-1\/2 inch length of cut, and a 6 inch overall length, placing it in the extra-long reach category. The 40-degree helix angle and TiCN coating work together to promote chip evacuation and extend tool life in demanding cutting environments. With two spiral flutes and a centercutting geometry, this end mill handles both peripheral and plunge cuts. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on CNC machining centers and manual mills are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill suits applications where standard-length tools cannot reach the workpiece or where clearance over fixtures is required. The extra-long 6 inch OAL makes it appropriate for deep-pocket milling, tall workpiece profiling, and setups with elevated vise jaws or tombstone fixtures. The micrograin carbide substrate supports higher surface footage and improved edge retention compared to standard carbide grades. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration is compatible with conventional CNC spindle direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for improved edge retention and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN finish reduces friction and extends tool life in abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes aggressive chip evacuation and smooth cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra-long 6 inch OAL provides clearance for deep-reach and fixture-clearance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-flute geometry offers larger chip gullets for improved chip flow in softer materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide square end mill for standard 5\/16 inch collet or end mill holder tooling systems on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer's toolholding specifications. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before loading or changing tooling. Use a properly sized collet or end mill holder with adequate clamping length on the shank to prevent pullout under load. Verify runout at the cutting end after installation before beginning a production cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (1.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\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\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Long\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: 0.12 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: 12181837\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51747104194866,"sku":"12181837","price":101.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4e5dd998d902b09573e297552495825e.jpg?v=1788876137","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12181837-square-end-mill-5-16-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
