Accupro 14797235 Square End Mill 1/16 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14797235 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling of ferrous and hardened materials. Built from micrograin carbide stock and finished with an AlTiN (aluminum titanium nitride) coating, this tool handles high-heat cutting applications where tool life and dimensional accuracy matter. The cutter measures 1/16 inch (0.0625 inch) in diameter with a 0.093 inch length of cut, a 30-degree right-hand helix, and three flutes arranged for efficient chip evacuation. It is a single-end, right-hand cutting tool suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills running tight-tolerance work in steel, stainless, and similar alloys.

This end mill is appropriate for finish milling, slotting, and profiling in applications that demand a small-diameter tool with extended reach capability. The extended reach geometry and 0.625 inch neck length allow access to features in confined areas without sacrificing rigidity. It fits standard 1/8 inch collets and tool holders. Machinists, moldmakers, and precision CNC operators working in job shops, die and mold environments, or aerospace component production are the primary users. The AlTiN coating adds thermal resistance, making this tool a practical choice for dry or minimal-lubrication cutting strategies.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for wear resistance and dimensional stability
• AlTiN coating provides high heat resistance for dry or semi-dry cutting
• 3-flute configuration balances chip clearance and edge strength at small diameters
• 30-degree right-hand helix promotes smooth cutting action and reduces chatter
• Extended reach design with 0.625 inch neck length for deep or confined-feature access
• Centercutting geometry allows plunge entry into the workpiece

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement for 1/8 inch shank collets and tool holders accepting a 1/16 inch diameter end mill. Part of the ACCUPRO ASQSC3-AT-CCER series of AlTiN-coated square end mills.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC setup technician using a properly sized collet or end mill holder rated for the 1/8 inch shank diameter. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Confirm runout with a dial indicator after seating to protect the small-diameter cutting edge. Follow the tool manufacturer and machine builder guidelines for speeds, feeds, and depth of cut appropriate to the workpiece material.
