Accupro 12182096 Corner Radius End Mill 5/8 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12182096 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. It features a 5/8 inch cutting diameter, a 1-1/4 inch length of cut, and a 0.03 inch corner radius that helps reduce stress concentrations and extend tool life at the cutting edge. The micrograin carbide construction provides hardness and wear resistance suited for demanding materials. With 3 flutes and a 40-degree helix angle, this end mill is optimized for chip evacuation and surface finish quality in a single-end, centercutting configuration. It is installed and used by machinists and CNC operators on vertical and horizontal milling machines.

This end mill is suited for peripheral and slot milling applications in job shop, tool room, and production environments. The centercutting design allows plunge entry, making it versatile for pocketing and contouring operations. The bright uncoated finish makes it appropriate for use in a range of common metals and materials where a coated tool is not required. The 5/8 inch shank diameter matches standard collet and end mill holder sizes used in typical CNC and manual milling setups.

Key Features

• 5/8 inch cutting diameter with 0.03 inch corner radius for reduced edge chipping and smoother transitions
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 3 flutes with 40-degree right-hand helix for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Single-end design with 3-1/2 inch overall length for reach in standard setups
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for dry or wet cutting in common alloys

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use corner radius end mill for standard 5/8 inch collets and end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following machine tool manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before installing or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully in a clean, undamaged collet or end mill holder and torque the retention mechanism to the tool holder manufacturer specification. Inspect the corner radius and cutting edges for chips or damage before each use.
