Constructed from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and edge retention required for demanding CNC machining applications. The tool features a 0.5 inch diameter cutting head, a 1 inch length of cut, and a 40-degree right-hand helix that promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces chatter. An AlTiN coating provides elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in high-temperature cutting environments. This end mill is installed by machinists and CNC operators in job shops, production facilities, and tool rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for profiling, slotting, and finish milling operations on hardened steels, stainless, titanium, and similar difficult-to-machine alloys where AlTiN coating performance is advantageous. The long-length configuration, with a 4 inch overall length and 0.5 inch shank diameter, accommodates setups requiring additional reach into deep pockets or complex workpiece geometry. It is used in vertical and horizontal machining centers running right-hand spindle rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for superior hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating for high-temperature performance and extended tool life in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree right-hand spiral helix for aggressive chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end design with 2 flutes optimized for finishing passes and contour work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong-length configuration at 4 inches OAL provides extended reach for deep-pocket applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 0.5 inch straight shank end mill with right-hand cutting direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists using an appropriate collet, end mill holder, or shrink-fit toolholder sized for the 0.5 inch shank diameter. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before cutting to maximize tool life and surface finish quality. Always power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety protocols when setting cutting parameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12184294\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732894449970,"sku":"12184294","price":126.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/df702fe11db41ce4c92f36bc09a0df02.jpg?v=1788748292","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12184294-ball-end-mill-0-5-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
