Accupro 14797317 Square End Mill 3/16 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14797317 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin carbide, it offers a 3/16 inch cutting diameter, a 1-1/8 inch length of cut, and a 30-degree helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The bright/uncoated finish suits a wide range of general-purpose materials. With three flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, this tool delivers a balance of material removal rate and surface finish quality. It is a single-end tool with extended reach geometry, featuring a neck length of 1.625 inches that allows access to deeper features without tool interference.

This end mill is suited for job shops, production machining environments, and tool rooms where tight-tolerance milling of slots, pockets, and profiles is required. The 3/16 inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter, making it compatible with standard collet chucks and end mill holders of that size. Its centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry into workpieces. The extended reach design makes it particularly useful when cutting operations require clearance past a shoulder or step.

Key Features

• 3-flute geometry balances chip clearance and cutting surface contact
• 30-degree right-hand spiral helix for effective chip evacuation
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge milling
• Extended reach with 1.625 inch neck length for deep-feature access
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose milling applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard collet chucks and end mill holders accepting a 3/16 inch shank diameter. Part of the ACCUPRO ASQSC3-CCER series of solid carbide square end mills.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this end mill should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with CNC or manual milling equipment. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully and concentrically in the collet or holder and torque the retention mechanism according to the tool holder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before engaging the cut to protect both the tool and the workpiece.
