With a 0.5 inch cutting diameter and a 1.5 inch length of cut, this tool delivers accurate ball-nose profiling, contouring, and finishing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 2-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with a 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Manufactured from micrograin carbide, this end mill offers superior wear resistance compared to high-speed steel tooling. It is intended for use by machinists and CNC programmers in production and job-shop settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill suits applications requiring deep reach into cavities, pockets, or contoured surfaces where standard-length tools cannot access. The 6 inch overall length classifies it as an extra-long reach tool, making it well suited for mold and die work, aerospace component machining, and complex 3D surfacing operations. The uncoated finish makes it appropriate for use with cutting fluids on a variety of workpiece materials. The 0.5 inch shank diameter matches standard collet and end mill holder sizes common in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for extended tool life and edge stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5 inch ball nose diameter for accurate radial profiling and contouring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduced cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra-long 6 inch overall length for deep-reach milling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute spiral for standard CNC spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for use with coolant on a broad range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual milling machines accepting a 0.5 inch shank end mill holder or collet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist following shop-standard tooling procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before inserting or removing the end mill from the holder or collet. Verify collet and holder runout before operation, as extra-long reach tools are more sensitive to runout than standard-length end mills. Follow all applicable machine manufacturer guidelines and workplace safety protocols when setting tool offsets and depth of cut parameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 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\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\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 Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 to -0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 to -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 12184316\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51747525361970,"sku":"12184316","price":149.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/233ff0984fecb32ffd51734acd18b520.jpg?v=1788881889","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12184316-ball-end-mill-0-5-in-2-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
