Accupro 14797233 Square End Mill 1/16 in 3 Flute Altin

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14797233 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision metal removal in demanding machining applications. Built from micrograin carbide and coated with AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride), this tool handles hard and abrasive materials while maintaining edge integrity at elevated cutting temperatures. The 1/16 inch cutting diameter and 0.093 inch length of cut make it well suited for fine-feature work in dies, molds, and complex part profiles. With a 30-degree helix angle and right-hand flute direction, it promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. This is a single-end, center-cutting tool that can be used for plunge entry as well as peripheral milling. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users.

This end mill is used in CNC machining centers and manual knee mills where small-diameter, high-precision cuts are required. It is appropriate for milling hardened steels, stainless steel, titanium, and other difficult-to-machine alloys. The extended reach design, with a 0.312 inch reach length and 0.500 inch neck length, allows access to recessed features and deep pockets that standard end mills cannot reach. It is commonly found in tool and die shops, aerospace component machining, and precision mold work where tight tolerances are critical.

Key Features

• AlTiN coating provides heat resistance and extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials
• Micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention at small diameters
• Extended reach geometry with 0.500 inch neck length for deep-pocket and recessed-feature access
• Center-cutting capable, allowing direct plunge entry into workpiece material
• 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth cutting and efficient chip flow
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute spiral for standard CNC spindle compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and milling machines accepting a 1/8 inch shank diameter. Series: ASQSC3-AT-CCER.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. The 1/8 inch shank should be seated fully and uniformly in a collet or end mill holder rated for the shank diameter before tightening. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Do not exceed the recommended length of cut of 0.093 inches to avoid tool deflection or breakage at this small diameter.
