Accupro 12183943 Ball End Mill 0.177 in 2 Flute Carbide Altin

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12183943 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. With a 0.177-inch (4.50 mm) cutting diameter and a 2-flute spiral configuration, this single-end tool delivers consistent material removal in tight-tolerance applications. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. An AlTiN (Aluminum Titanium Nitride) coating adds heat and wear resistance, extending tool life in demanding cutting conditions. Machined from micrograin carbide, this end mill holds tight edge geometry across the full length of cut.

This end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where small-diameter, high-precision work is required. The 0.6299-inch (16.00 mm) length of cut and 6 mm shank diameter make it appropriate for profiling, slotting, and 3D contouring in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, hardened steels, and similar materials. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional spindle setups. The single-end configuration is typical for production and job-shop environments requiring reliable, repeatable performance.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention
• AlTiN coating for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life
• 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation
• 2-flute spiral design suited for profiling and slotting passes
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard spindle compatibility
• Single-end configuration for straightforward toolholder setup

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or production-run ball end mill for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 6 mm round shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup personnel. Secure the shank fully into a compatible collet or end mill holder and torque to the toolholder manufacturer's specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a cutting pass. Always power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling.
