Accupro 12184234 Ball End Mill 0.625 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12184234 is a single-end ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in ferrous and hard materials. Built from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and wear resistance needed for demanding cutting applications. The tool features a 0.625-inch mill diameter, a 2.125-inch length of cut, and a 4.625-inch overall length. An AlTiN coating provides thermal protection at elevated cutting speeds, extending tool life in high-heat environments. A 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces across a range of materials and depths.

This end mill is suited for profiling, contouring, and slotting operations in machining centers and CNC mills. Its long-reach geometry makes it appropriate for deeper cavities where standard-length tooling cannot reach. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction make it compatible with conventional CNC spindle configurations. Typical users include machinists working in job shops, tool and die environments, and production machining settings where carbide tooling and hard-material capability are standard requirements.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for high rigidity and edge retention
• AlTiN coating for thermal resistance and extended tool life at elevated cutting speeds
• 40-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting force
• Long-series geometry with 2.125-inch length of cut for deeper cavity access
• Right-hand cutting and right-hand spiral flute direction for standard CNC spindle compatibility
• Single-end design with 0.625-inch shank diameter for direct collet or end mill holder mounting

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and knee mills accepting a 0.625-inch shank diameter in ER, Weldon, or shrink-fit end mill holders.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before changing tooling. Confirm holder bore and collet size match the 0.625-inch shank diameter before mounting. Follow machine manufacturer torque guidelines for the holder type in use to avoid shank slippage or runout issues.
