Accupro 14788472 Square End Mill 4 Flute Solid Carbide 5mm

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14788472 is a 4-flute solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal, composite, and engineering-grade plastic materials. With a 5mm mill diameter and a 16mm length of cut, this centercutting tool can plunge directly into the workpiece and transition to side milling without a pre-drilled entry point. The helical flute geometry promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. The 6mm cylindrical shank seats securely in standard collet chucks and tool holders. At 0.07 pounds, this is a compact, single-piece solid carbide tool suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills where tight tolerances are required.

This end mill is well suited for finish and semi-finish passes in ferrous and non-ferrous materials on CNC vertical machining centers, toolroom mills, and multi-axis platforms. The 5mm diameter makes it a go-to choice for slot milling, profile milling, and pocket work in smaller features or detailed part geometries. The 63mm overall length provides adequate reach for most standard setups without sacrificing rigidity. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and CNC operators in job shops and production environments are the primary users of this tool.

Key Features

• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole
• 4-flute helical geometry for improved surface finish and chip flow
• Solid carbide construction for hardness, heat resistance, and wear life
• 5mm mill diameter with 16mm length of cut for detailed feature work
• 6mm cylindrical shank compatible with standard collet and end mill holders
• Compact 63mm overall length maintains rigidity in typical setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 6mm cylindrical shank end mill holder or collet chuck.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or removing the tool from the holder. Ensure the shank is fully seated to the recommended depth in the collet or end mill holder and that the drawbar or clamping mechanism is torqued per the tool holder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping before each use and replace the tool if edge integrity is compromised.
