Accupro 12184162 Ball End Mill 0.375 in 2 Flute Altin Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12184162 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this single-end tool features a 0.375 inch mill diameter with a 0.625 inch length of cut and a 2 inch overall length. The AlTiN coating provides heat resistance and extended tool life in high-temperature cutting environments. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. This end mill is suited for milling operations requiring tight tolerances and consistent surface finishes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This ball end mill is used in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines for contouring, profiling, and 3D surface work. The stub length configuration offers added rigidity during cuts, reducing deflection in demanding material removal applications. The 0.375 inch shank diameter matches standard ER and other common toolholding systems found in most machine shops. It is typically installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers working in job shop, production, and toolroom environments.

Key Features

• 0.375 inch mill diameter with 0.625 inch length of cut for controlled depth profiling
• AlTiN coating for heat resistance and improved wear life in ferrous materials
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention
• 40-degree right-hand spiral flute for efficient chip evacuation
• Stub length design reduces deflection and improves rigidity in tight setups
• Single-end configuration for straightforward toolholder installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide ball end mill compatible with standard 3/8 inch toolholders and collet systems used in CNC and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine powered down and all stored energy released before changing tooling. Ensure the shank is fully seated and properly torqued in the toolholder per the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before use. Follow applicable shop safety protocols and machine manufacturer guidelines when setting spindle speeds and feed rates.
