Accupro 12184856 Ball End Mill 0.75in 4 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12184856 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. It features a 0.75-inch mill diameter, a 1-inch length of cut, and a 4-flute configuration with a 40-degree right-hand helix. The micrograin solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance suited to finishing and semi-finishing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The uncoated finish makes it a versatile choice when coating is not required by the application. This tool is installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers working with vertical and horizontal milling machines.

This ball end mill is used in shops performing contour milling, profiling, and 3D surface work on materials where a tight radius nose profile is required. The stub length classification keeps the tool compact for improved rigidity in tight setups. The single-end design means the cutting geometry is on one end only, which is standard for most CNC and manual milling setups. It is suited to light to moderate material removal on production and prototype runs in job shop and manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life
• 4-flute spiral flute design with 40-degree right-hand helix for efficient chip evacuation
• Ball nose profile for contour milling and 3D surface work
• Uncoated finish for versatile use across a range of materials
• Stub length classification improves rigidity in short-reach setups
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.000 to -0.002 inches for consistent fitment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard shank ball end mill compatible with milling machine collets and end mill holders accepting a 0.75-inch shank diameter with a shank tolerance of -0.0001 to -0.0004 inches.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed by machinists using a properly torqued collet chuck or end mill holder rated for the shank diameter. Ensure the spindle and machine are powered off and locked out before changing tooling. Verify runout at the tool tip after installation to confirm proper seating. Follow the machine manufacturer and tooling manufacturer guidelines for speeds and feeds appropriate to the workpiece material.
