Accupro 12184302 Ball End Mill 0.75 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12184302 is a single-end ball end mill designed for precision contouring, profiling, and 3D milling operations in metalworking applications. Built from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers high rigidity and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel tooling. The 0.75 inch cutting diameter pairs with a 2 inch length of cut and a 40-degree right-hand helix to promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes. A TiCN coating adds surface hardness and reduces friction, extending tool life in demanding cutting conditions. This tool is intended for use by machinists and CNC operators in job shop, production, and tool-and-die environments.

This end mill is suited for contouring and finishing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a ball-nose profile is required. The long-length configuration with a 6 inch overall length allows access to deeper pockets and tall workpiece features. The 0.75 inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter, providing consistent clamping in standard collet chucks or end mill holders. Right-hand flute direction and right-hand cutting orientation are standard for conventional CNC milling machine setups.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for high rigidity and extended tool life
• TiCN coating reduces friction and improves wear resistance in ferrous materials
• 40-degree right-hand helix promotes chip evacuation and reduces heat buildup
• 2 inch length of cut on a 6 inch overall length body for deep-reach applications
• Single-end design with matched 0.75 inch shank and cutting diameter
• Spiral flute geometry suited for profiling, slotting, and 3D contouring

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use cutting tool compatible with standard 3/4 inch collet chucks, shrink-fit holders, and end mill holders used in CNC vertical and horizontal milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup personnel. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before inserting or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully into the holder to the recommended gauge-line depth before tightening. Inspect the cutting edges and coating for chips or wear before each use and replace the tool when surface finish or dimensional accuracy degrades.
