Accupro 14788526 Square End Mill 4 Flute Solid Carbide 8mm

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14788526 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. Built with four helical flutes and a centercutting geometry, it supports both plunge and peripheral cutting in a single tool. The 8mm mill diameter and 12mm length of cut make it well-suited for slot milling, profiling, and pocketing on CNC machining centers and manual mills. The 38 to 42 degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Solid carbide construction delivers the rigidity and wear resistance required for high-speed cutting applications.

This end mill is used in job shops, production machining, and toolroom environments where tight tolerances and repeatable surface finishes are required. The cylindrical shank fits standard collet chucks and end mill holders sized for 8mm or 0.32 inch shank diameters. It is appropriate for use on CNC vertical machining centers, milling machines, and similar equipment. The centercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece material without pre-drilling, which speeds up pocketing operations.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life
• Four helical flutes for efficient chip removal and smooth finish
• Centercutting geometry enables direct plunge cutting
• 38 to 42 degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves chip flow
• Cylindrical shank fits standard 8mm collet chucks and end mill holders
• No chipbreaker for clean, continuous cuts in general milling applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and milling machines accepting 8mm cylindrical shank end mills.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before loading or changing tooling. Seat the cylindrical shank fully in the collet or end mill holder and torque the retention hardware according to the toolholder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a new operation to ensure concentricity and extend tool life.
