Accupro 12184575 Ball End Mill 0.125 in 4 Flute Carbide Ticn

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12184575 is a single-end ball end mill designed for precise contour milling, profiling, and 3D surface work in metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and edge retention needed for demanding cuts in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The tool measures 0.125 inches in diameter with a 0.5 inch length of cut and a 1.5 inch overall length. A TiCN coating reduces friction and increases surface hardness, extending tool life in abrasive materials. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action across four flutes.

This end mill is suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills where fine detail work, tight-tolerance contouring, or die and mold finishing is required. The 0.125 inch shank diameter makes it compatible with standard collets and tool holders used in light-duty profiling setups. Typical applications include finishing passes on hardened steel, stainless, aluminum, and similar materials where a ball-nose geometry is required to produce radiused floors and blended surfaces.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for superior hardness and edge retention
• TiCN coating reduces friction and improves wear resistance in abrasive materials
• 4-flute design increases feed rate capability and surface finish quality
• 40-degree right-hand helix promotes efficient chip evacuation
• Ball-nose geometry produces radiused profiles and 3D contours
• Single-end configuration with matched 0.125 inch shank and cutting diameter

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills equipped with standard collet systems accepting a 0.125 inch shank diameter tool holder.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully powered down and locked out. Secure the shank fully within the collet or tool holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Inspect the cutting edges and coating for chips or wear before each use, as a damaged ball-nose profile will affect surface finish and dimensional accuracy. Follow the machine manufacturer and tooling guidelines for speeds and feeds appropriate to the workpiece material.
