Accupro 14788658 Ball End Mill 0.75in 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14788658 is a 3-flute solid carbide ball end mill designed for high-performance milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 0.75-inch mill diameter and a 2.25-inch length of cut, this tool handles deep slotting, profiling, and 3D contouring applications where rigidity and heat resistance are critical. The AlTiN+ coating provides enhanced hardness and oxidation resistance at elevated cutting temperatures, extending tool life in demanding machining environments. The cylindrical shank measures 0.75 inches in diameter, ensuring secure toolholder engagement. This end mill is installed and operated by machinists and CNC programmers in production shop environments.

This ball end mill is suited for milling centers, CNC machining centers, and manual knee mills running at speeds and feeds appropriate for solid carbide tooling. The medium flute type and 3-flute geometry balance chip evacuation with surface finish quality, making it a practical choice for semi-finishing and finishing passes on mold and die work, aerospace components, and general precision machining. The 5-inch overall length provides reach for deeper setups without requiring extended-reach tooling configurations.

Key Features

• AlTiN+ coating increases surface hardness and oxidation resistance for longer tool life in high-temperature cuts
• 3-flute medium flute geometry balances chip removal and surface finish quality
• Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance superior to HSS tooling
• 0.75-inch cylindrical shank fits standard ER and side-lock toolholders
• 2.25-inch length of cut supports deep slotting and 3D profiling passes
• No chipbreaker design suited for finishing and semi-finishing operations

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and milling machines accepting 0.75-inch shank toolholders. Confirm spindle speed, feed rate, and coolant strategy are matched to solid carbide ball end mill requirements for the workpiece material before use.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the toolchanger or spindle is locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the toolholder and torque the retention mechanism to the toolholder specification. Inspect the cutting edge for chips or coating damage before initiating a cut, and never run solid carbide tooling with excessive runout as it will cause premature breakage.
