Built from micrograin carbide stock, it carries an AlTiN finish that extends tool life in dry and semi-dry cutting conditions by resisting heat and oxidation at elevated temperatures. The 4-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with a 40-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. At 9\/16 inch in diameter with a stub-length overall length of 3 inches and a 7\/8-inch length of cut, this end mill is suited for rigid setups where deflection control is a priority. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is applicable to face milling, slotting, peripheral milling, and plunge operations in ferrous alloys, stainless steel, hardened steels, and similar materials. The centercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilling. The stub-length profile keeps the tool short and stiff, making it a practical choice for high-material-removal-rate operations on CNC machining centers and knee mills where spindle rigidity is available. It is appropriate for production and job-shop environments alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating for heat resistance and extended tool life in dry cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes chip flow and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge milling without pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute, standard CNC spindle compatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStub-length body minimizes deflection in tight-tolerance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style solid carbide square end mill for use in standard 9\/16 inch collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit tooling systems on CNC machining centers and manual mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop safety procedures. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before inserting or removing tooling. Seat the shank fully within the holder to the recommended gauge line and verify runout with a dial indicator before cutting. Consult the machine manufacturer and applicable OSHA standards for proper clamping torque and RPM parameters based on material and operation type.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inch (0.5625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inch (0.8750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inch (0.5625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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\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\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\u003eFinish \/ Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 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: 12182957\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739417379122,"sku":"12182957","price":114.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/167e4e8589b67cbe287b8102424106fd.jpg?v=1788814381","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12182957-square-end-mill-9-16-in-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
