Accupro 14796980 Square End Mill 0.1 in 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14796980 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal fabrication and machining applications. Built from micrograin carbide and coated with AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) for extended tool life and heat resistance, this single-end mill features a 0.1-inch cutting diameter with four flutes and a 30-degree right-hand helix. The right-hand cutting direction and spiral flute geometry promote efficient chip evacuation. This tool is centercutting, allowing plunge entry. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use this end mill on CNC machining centers and manual mills for finishing and slotting work in hardened and abrasive materials.

This end mill is suited for close-tolerance milling work in aerospace, moldmaking, and general precision machining environments. The regular-length configuration and 1/8-inch shank diameter make it compatible with standard collet systems and tool holders found on vertical and horizontal machining centers. The 19/64-inch length of cut supports slotting and profiling passes in confined or narrow-feature geometries. No extended reach is built in, keeping the tool stiff and reducing deflection risk during aggressive passes.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• AlTiN coating for improved heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous and abrasive materials
• Four-flute spiral geometry with 30-degree right-hand helix for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard spindle rotation
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 / -0.0010 inches for close-fit applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/8-inch collet chucks and tool holders on CNC and manual milling machines accepting right-hand cutting tools in the regular-length category.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom professional. Secure the shank fully within the collet to the recommended grip depth before tightening; never grip on the flute area. Confirm spindle rotation direction matches the right-hand cutting geometry before engaging the workpiece. Follow shop safety protocols and machine manufacturer guidelines when changing tooling.
