Accupro 12182995 Square End Mill 3/16 in 4 Flute Carbide Ticn

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12182995 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precise milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin carbide with a TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating, it delivers extended tool life and wear resistance in demanding cutting environments. The 4-flute, spiral geometry with a 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes. At 0.1875 inches in diameter with a 0.75-inch length of cut and 2.5-inch overall length, this end mill is sized for detail work and tight-tolerance features. Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole.

This end mill is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and other ferrous materials in production and job-shop environments. The long-length classification provides additional reach for deeper pockets and stepped features. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation make it compatible with standard CNC machining centers and manual mills. It is typically used by machinists and toolroom professionals working on dies, molds, fixtures, and precision components where dimensional accuracy is critical.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• TiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in ferrous materials
• 40-degree helix angle promotes chip flow and reduces cutting forces
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge milling without a pilot hole
• 4-flute spiral geometry for improved surface finish and material removal rate
• Long-length classification provides extra reach for deep pocket work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide square end mill for use in standard 3/16 inch collets or end mill holders on CNC machining centers and conventional vertical mills.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and machine power locked out. Secure the shank in a clean, properly sized collet or end mill holder to the depth recommended by the toolholder manufacturer. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before use. Follow shop-specific feeds, speeds, and coolant guidelines for the workpiece material and machine capability.
