Accupro 12185092 Square End Mill 15/64 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12185092 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metal, composite, and engineered material applications. The cutter measures 15/64 inch (0.2344 inches) in diameter with a 1/2 inch length of cut and a 1/4 inch shank diameter. Overall length is 2-1/2 inches. Built from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers consistent edge retention and dimensional accuracy in demanding machining environments. The 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. This is a double-end configuration, giving machinists two usable cutting ends per tool.

This end mill is suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills in job shop, tool and die, and production machining settings. The stub-length profile provides increased rigidity for tight-tolerance slotting, profiling, and plunge cuts. The centercutting geometry allows direct entry into the workpiece without a pre-drilled hole. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional spindle rotation. No chipbreaker geometry keeps the cutting edge clean for finishing passes.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for extended tool life and edge stability
• 40-degree helix angle improves chip flow and reduces heat buildup
• Centercutting design allows plunge milling without pre-drilling
• Double-end configuration provides two cutting ends per tool
• Stub-length body maximizes rigidity in short-reach applications
• Uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids on a wide range of materials

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or new-installation end mill for CNC machining centers and manual knee mills accepting a 1/4 inch straight shank toolholder or collet.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a collet chuck or end mill holder rated for 1/4 inch shank diameter; verify runout and tighten to the toolholder manufacturer's specification before spindle operation. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the control is in an e-stop or locked-out state before changing tooling. Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to maintain tool life and surface finish. Inspect both cutting ends for chipping before each use.
