With a 1\/2 inch mill diameter, 1-1\/2 inch length of cut, and a 40-degree helix angle, this tool delivers aggressive chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes in demanding cutting conditions. The AlTiN coating provides elevated heat resistance, making it well-suited for dry or high-speed machining of hardened steels, stainless, and cast iron. Micrograin carbide substrate adds toughness and wear resistance over extended run times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and multi-axis machining applications in production shop and job shop environments. The extra-long overall length of 6 inches allows access to deep pockets, tall workpieces, and setups requiring extended reach. The single-end, right-hand cutting configuration suits standard climb and conventional milling operations. Machinists and CNC programmers working in aerospace, die-mold, and precision manufacturing will find this tool appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing passes on complex geometries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch diameter ball end profile for contoured and 3D surface milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN coating for high-temperature resistance and extended tool life in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide substrate for improved wear resistance and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra-long 6 inch overall length provides extended reach for deep-pocket applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute spiral flute design balances chip clearance with rigidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual vertical mills accepting a 1\/2 inch shank diameter collet or end mill holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the 1\/2 inch shank in a properly sized collet, end mill holder, or shrink-fit toolholder, and confirm runout with a dial indicator before commencing cuts. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in an energy-isolated state before tool changes. Avoid side-loading the tool beyond its rated depth of cut to prevent deflection or breakage, particularly given the extended-reach length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 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: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\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\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: AlTiN\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: Extra Long\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\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: 12184537\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737152291122,"sku":"12184537","price":182.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f47333982ee0bddc03d74b31a180f799.jpg?v=1788784969","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-12184537-ball-end-mill-1-2-in-3-flute-solid-carbide-altin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
