Accupro 12184334 Ball End Mill 0.1719 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12184334 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal, composite, and hard material applications. With a 0.1719-inch cutting diameter and a 0.625-inch length of cut, this single-end tool handles contour milling, slotting, and profiling in tight-tolerance work. The 3-flute geometry paired with a 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining a smooth surface finish. Micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and edge retention needed for demanding cuts. This tool is installed and run by machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments.

This end mill is suited for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where small-diameter, high-precision cutting is required. The 3/16-inch shank diameter fits standard collet systems. The right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute direction make it compatible with conventional CNC spindle setups. Its uncoated finish is appropriate for applications where coolant or cutting fluid is used to manage heat, or for operators who prefer to apply their own coating or run dry in specific material conditions.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for high hardness and edge retention
• 0.1719-inch ball nose diameter for contour and 3D profile milling
• 3-flute design with 40-degree helix for efficient chip evacuation
• Right-hand cut and right-hand spiral for standard CNC spindle compatibility
• Single-end configuration with 2-inch overall length
• Uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluid across a range of workpiece materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use solid carbide ball end mill for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 3/16-inch shank diameter collet or end mill holder.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator following the machine tool manufacturer's guidelines. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully and evenly in the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth before torquing the collet nut. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation, as excessive runout on small-diameter carbide tools accelerates edge wear and increases breakage risk.
