Accupro 14797387 Ball End Mill 0.045 in 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14797387 is a miniature solid carbide ball end mill designed for precise contouring, profiling, and finishing operations in tight tolerances. With a 0.045-inch cutting diameter and a 0.135-inch length of cut, this tool is built for small-feature machining where accuracy and rigidity are critical. The AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life in hard and abrasive workpiece materials. The 30-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. This end mill is used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals in CNC milling applications demanding high precision at the micro scale.

The 14797387 is suited for finish milling, slotting, and profiling of small features in ferrous and non-ferrous materials, as well as hardened steels where AlTiN coating performance is most effective. Its 1/8-inch shank diameter makes it compatible with standard collets and tool holders commonly found in vertical and horizontal CNC machining centers. The single-end, right-hand cutting configuration is the standard setup for most general CNC milling work in job shop and production environments.

Key Features

• 0.045-inch ball end cutting diameter with mill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 to -0.0010 inches for tight dimensional control
• AlTiN coating for high-temperature resistance and extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials
• Solid carbide micrograin substrate provides rigidity and wear resistance in small-diameter tooling
• 30-degree right-hand spiral helix promotes efficient chip evacuation in fine-feature cuts
• 2-flute geometry balances chip clearance and cutting edge strength at this diameter range
• Single-end design with 1/8-inch shank and 1.5-inch overall length fits standard CNC collet systems

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and milling machines equipped with standard collet or end mill holders accepting a 1/8-inch shank diameter. Intended for the ACCUPRO Miniature Series application range.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed only when the machine spindle is fully stopped and the controller is in a safe state. Secure the 1/8-inch shank in a properly sized, clean collet or tool holder to the tool holder manufacturer's specified runout tolerance. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut or feed rate for this diameter, as small-diameter carbide tooling is susceptible to breakage under side loads. Inspect the cutting edges and coating condition before each setup.
