Accupro 12182262 Square End Mill 3/4 in 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12182262 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. It features a 0.750 inch mill diameter, a 3 inch length of cut, and a 6 inch overall length, placing it in the extra-long category for extended reach applications. The 40-degree helix angle and spiral flute geometry promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this tool delivers the rigidity and wear resistance required for demanding milling work. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC tooling professionals in shop and production settings.

This end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations where extended reach is needed to access deep features or tall workpiece geometries. The 3/4 inch shank diameter matches common collet and end mill holder sizes used in vertical machining centers and manual mills. The uncoated micrograin carbide construction makes it appropriate for a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials where coating is not specified. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation follow standard CNC and manual milling conventions.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for enhanced rigidity and edge retention
• 40-degree helix angle with spiral flute for effective chip evacuation
• Centercutting geometry allows plunge entry into the workpiece
• Extra-long 6 inch overall length with 3 inch length of cut for deep-reach applications
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration for standard spindle operation
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.000/-0.002 inches for consistent, predictable fit

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 3/4 inch collets, end mill holders, and milling chucks on vertical machining centers and manual knee mills. Shank diameter tolerance is -0.0001/-0.0004 inches for secure tool holding in precision holders.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for tool holding and runout. Ensure the spindle and tool holder are clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Confirm tool overhang does not exceed what is required for the operation, as excessive extension beyond the 6 inch OAL is not applicable here. Set appropriate feed rates and spindle speeds for the workpiece material and verify tool runout before starting the cut.
