Accupro 12184075 Ball End Mill 0.079 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12184075 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, hardened steels, and aerospace alloys. The 2-flute configuration at a 0.079-inch (2.00 mm) cutting diameter allows for high-detail profiling, slotting, and contouring in tight geometries. An AlTiN coating provides elevated heat resistance and wear life, making this tool well-suited for dry or near-dry cutting conditions at higher spindle speeds. Micrograin carbide substrate supports edge sharpness and rigidity at this small diameter. Overall length is 38.00 mm, and the 40-degree helix promotes efficient chip evacuation during cut.

This end mill fits applications requiring fine-detail work in CNC machining centers, die-and-mold work, and precision part manufacturing. The stub-length configuration and 3.00 mm shank diameter make it practical for high-speed operations where tool deflection must be minimized. Its single-end design and right-hand cutting direction are standard for conventional CNC vertical milling setups. It is used primarily by machinist and tooling professionals in job shops, aerospace fabrication, and precision manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• 0.079-inch (2.00 mm) ball nose cutting diameter for fine-detail profiling and contouring
• AlTiN coating for high-heat resistance and extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials
• Micrograin solid carbide substrate for rigidity and sharp edge retention at small diameters
• 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finish
• Stub-length design minimizes deflection during high-speed CNC operations
• Right-hand cut, right-hand spiral, single-end configuration for standard CNC spindle compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and milling machines accepting a 3.00 mm shank diameter. Right-hand spindle rotation required. Suitable for ferrous metals, hardened steels, and aerospace alloys where AlTiN coating performance is indicated.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked out before changing tooling. Seat the 3.00 mm shank fully and securely in the collet or tool holder, and verify runout with a dial indicator before production cuts. Follow the tooling manufacturer and machine OEM guidelines for recommended speeds and feeds at this diameter.
