With a 0.5-inch diameter and three flutes, it delivers smooth chip evacuation and consistent surface finish in demanding materials. The TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating increases surface hardness and wear resistance compared to uncoated carbide, extending tool life in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. At 6 inches overall length with a 3-inch length of cut, this is an extra-long configuration suited for deep-pocket and long-reach milling operations. It is installed by machinists and CNC operators working in production or job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where extended reach into deep cavities, ribs, or contoured surfaces is required. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduces cutting forces. The single-end, right-hand cutting configuration is standard for general-purpose milling setups. It is appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing passes in steel, stainless, and similar alloys. The micrograin carbide substrate provides toughness and edge retention at elevated cutting temperatures typical of high-speed milling operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5-inch ball end diameter with 3-inch length of cut for deep-reach milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for edge retention and rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiCN coating enhances wear resistance and reduces friction at the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes chip evacuation and lowers cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra-long 6-inch overall length enables access to deep pockets and contoured features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute, single-end configuration for standard CNC setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard single-end ball end mill with a 0.5-inch shank diameter, compatible with collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit toolholders sized for 1\/2-inch shanks in CNC machining centers and knee mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before loading or removing tooling. Seat the shank to the minimum recommended insertion depth per the toolholder manufacturer specification to prevent pullout under load. Verify runout at the holder before commencing a cut, as excessive runout accelerates flute wear on carbide tooling.\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\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: 12184476\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51752585134386,"sku":"12184476","price":247.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cd72e2c6aa0f5e19e93888dbe50f392d.jpg?v=1788929227","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12184476-ball-end-mill-0-5-in-3-flute-carbide-ticn","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
