Accupro 12185338 Ball End Mill 0.0938 in 4 Flute Ticn Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12185338 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. It carries a 0.0938-inch (3/32-inch) mill diameter with a 0.1875-inch (3/16-inch) length of cut and a 40-degree helix angle. The TiCN coating improves surface hardness and wear resistance, extending tool life in demanding cut conditions. With four flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, this end mill delivers smooth chip evacuation and consistent finishes. It is configured as a double-end tool, offering two usable cutting ends per unit. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users of this tool.

This end mill is suited for milling operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, hardened steels, and similar materials where tight tolerances and fine finishes are required. The stub-length classification means reduced overhang and improved rigidity during cuts, making it well-suited for slotting, profiling, and contouring in tight or shallow-depth applications. The 1/8-inch shank diameter allows direct mounting in standard collet chucks and tool holders commonly found in CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Key Features

• TiCN coating for improved wear resistance and longer tool life
• 40-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting action and efficient chip evacuation
• Double-end design provides two cutting ends per tool
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and dimensional stability
• Stub-length classification reduces deflection during precision cuts
• Four right-hand spiral flutes for consistent finish on milled surfaces

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard collet chucks and tool holders accepting a 1/8-inch shank diameter, compatible with CNC machining centers and manual milling machines equipped for solid carbide end mills.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and de-energized before changing tooling. Secure the 1/8-inch shank in a properly sized collet or tool holder and torque to the machine manufacturer's specification. Inspect both cutting ends for chipping or wear before use and follow applicable shop safety protocols for carbide tooling handling.
