Accupro 14796971 Square End Mill 0.056 in 4 Flute Altin

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14796971 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metalworking and machining applications. With a 0.056-inch cutting diameter and a 0.168-inch length of cut, this tool is built for tight-tolerance work in small-feature milling, slotting, and profiling. The AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and hardness, extending tool life in ferrous and high-temperature alloy cutting. The micrograin carbide substrate adds toughness and edge retention at small diameters. Four flutes deliver a balance of chip evacuation and surface finish. This tool is installed and used by machinists and CNC operators working with precision components.

This end mill suits CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and manual milling machines where small-diameter, high-precision cuts are required. It is well suited for mold and die work, aerospace components, medical device machining, and general precision part production. The 1/8-inch shank diameter fits standard ER collet chucks and other common toolholding systems. The single-end configuration is standard for this tool class. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction apply.

Key Features

• 0.056-inch cutting diameter for small-feature and micro-milling applications
• AlTiN coating for elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous materials
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for edge retention and rigidity at small diameters
• 4-flute spiral geometry balances chip removal with finish quality
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting action and reduced cutting forces
• Center-cutting capable, allowing plunge entry as well as peripheral and slot milling

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/8-inch ER collet chucks and compatible toolholding systems on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines. Part of the ACCUPRO ASQSC4-AT-CC-30H series.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the shank fully within the collet or toolholder to the recommended gauge length before tightening. Verify spindle runout is within tolerance before cutting, as small-diameter end mills are sensitive to runout-induced deflection and breakage. Power down and lock out the spindle before any tooling change.
