Accupro 12182412 Square End Mill 3/16 in 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12182412 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metalworking and machining applications. With a 3/16 inch mill diameter, a 5/8 inch length of cut, and a 2 inch overall length, this single-end tool delivers clean, accurate cuts in a compact profile. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Manufactured from micrograin solid carbide, it offers the rigidity and wear resistance required for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Licensed machinists and CNC operators use this tool in vertical mills, CNC machining centers, and manual knee mills.

This end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling operations in both production and toolroom environments. The uncoated finish makes it a practical choice for aluminum, brass, and other non-ferrous materials where coating buildup can be a concern. Its centercutting design allows plunge entry into the workpiece. The 3/16 inch shank diameter matches the mill diameter, and the regular-length body fits standard tool holders and collets used in light- to medium-duty milling work.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life
• 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduced cutting forces
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry
• Right-hand cut with right-hand spiral flute configuration
• Uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous and general-purpose milling
• 4-flute design balances chip clearance with surface finish quality

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard toolroom end mill compatible with 3/16 inch collets and tool holders used in CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and manual knee mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in an e-stop or locked-out state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully in the collet or tool holder and torque the retention hardware to the tool holder manufacturer's specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning production cuts.
