Built from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers consistent edge retention and dimensional accuracy across a wide range of materials. The 0.5 inch cutting diameter pairs with a 1.5 inch length of cut and a 6 inch overall length, making it well suited for deep-reach applications where a standard-length tool cannot access the workpiece. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. This tool is installed and operated by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and CNC programmers working in production or job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in vertical and horizontal milling operations on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. The extra-long overall length of 6 inches supports applications requiring extended reach into deep pockets, slots, and contoured features. The centercutting geometry allows plunge milling directly into the workpiece without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Right-hand cut with right-hand spiral flutes makes it compatible with standard spindle rotation on conventional milling equipment. Typical applications include slotting, profiling, and pocket milling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for superior hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle for aggressive chip evacuation and reduced heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 flutes provide a balance between chip clearance and cutting edge strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra-long 6 inch OAL for deep-reach milling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids across a range of workpiece 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 0.5 inch collet or end mill holder systems on CNC and manual milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the shank in a properly sized collet, end mill holder, or shrink-fit toolholder rated for the 0.5 inch shank diameter before engaging the spindle. Verify runout with a dial indicator before commencing cutting operations. Always confirm spindle direction matches the right-hand cut orientation of this tool before starting the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\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: 0.3 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: 12182313\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755155358002,"sku":"12182313","price":130.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0cd887bfac96f8685acb40bcf0cf7c63.jpg?v=1788951633","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12182313-square-end-mill-0-5-in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
