It features a 5\/16-inch cutting diameter with a 4-flute, spiral flute geometry and a 40-degree helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes. The micrograin carbide substrate provides edge retention in demanding cutting conditions. At 2 inches overall length with a 1\/2-inch length of cut, this is a stub-length tool suited for rigid setups where deflection control is critical. It is centercutting, allowing plunge operations in addition to peripheral and slot milling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is used in machining centers and manual mills for slotting, profiling, and pocket milling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration is standard for conventional CNC and manual milling applications. The uncoated finish makes it suitable for aluminum and non-ferrous applications where coating buildup could be a concern, and it can be reground to extend tool life. The stub-length design is particularly effective in setups with tight Z-axis clearance or where chatter from tool overhang must be minimized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide micrograin substrate for edge retention and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStub-length geometry increases rigidity and reduces deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute for standard CNC and manual mill compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated surface finish suitable for aluminum and non-ferrous machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or production end mill for any milling machine or machining center accepting a 5\/16-inch straight shank tool holder, collet, or end mill adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer's tooling guidelines. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked before inserting or removing the tool from the collet or tool holder. Verify the shank is fully seated to the minimum recommended clamping depth before tightening the collet nut. Check tool runout with a dial indicator after installation to confirm it falls within the specified diameter tolerances before beginning a cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\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\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\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 12182829\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51752909930802,"sku":"12182829","price":37.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/dbecfc25243c28a05c38b45e44ce1931.jpg?v=1788931011","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12182829-square-end-mill-5-16-in-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
