Accupro 12185414 Roughing End Mill 1/8 in 4 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 12185414 is a solid carbide roughing finishing end mill designed for aggressive material removal and finish passes in a single tool. Built with 4 flutes and a 40-degree helix angle, it delivers efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The chipbreaker geometry reduces cutting forces and minimizes vibration during heavy roughing passes. At 1/8 inch diameter with a 1/2 inch length of cut and micrograin carbide construction, this tool is suited for precision work in tight pockets and complex contours where both stock removal and surface finish are required in CNC milling operations.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where a compact, high-performance tool is needed. The 1/8 inch straight shank fits standard collet chucks, and the single-end, right-hand cutting configuration suits conventional climb milling setups. It is a regular-length tool, making it appropriate for general-purpose milling where extended reach is not required. Machinists and tooling specialists working with aluminum, steel, stainless, and similar materials will find this tool effective for both roughing and light finishing in a single operation.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for wear resistance and rigidity at small diameters
• Chipbreaker geometry reduces cutting forces and controls chip size during roughing passes
• 40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and improved surface finish
• Center-cutting design allows plunge entry into workpiece material
• Right-hand flute direction and right-hand cutting for standard spindle rotation
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids across a range of materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual milling machines accepting a 1/8 inch straight shank collet or end mill holder.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Inspect the tool for chips or micro-fractures before each use, as solid carbide tooling at small diameters is susceptible to breakage under excessive radial load or improper runout.
