Accupro 14797481 Ball End Mill 0.0625 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14797481 is a miniature solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in tight geometries and small-feature work. Measuring 0.0625 inches in diameter with a 0.5-inch length of cut and 2.5-inch overall length, this single-end tool is engineered for high-accuracy contouring, slotting, and 3D profiling. The three-flute geometry with a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining rigidity in the cut. An AlTiN coating increases surface hardness and thermal resistance, extending tool life in ferrous and hardened materials. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and precision CNC operators working with small-diameter end mills will find this tool suited to demanding finish work.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills where small-radius features, fine detail work, or miniature component profiles are required. Its 0.125-inch shank diameter is compatible with standard collet systems used in high-speed spindle setups. The micrograin carbide substrate supports elevated surface footage in hardened steels, stainless, titanium, and non-ferrous materials. The long-length classification provides added reach for deeper cavities without sacrificing the stiffness typically associated with solid carbide construction.

Key Features

• 0.0625-inch ball end diameter for small-feature and miniature-profile milling
• 3-flute spiral design with 30-degree right-hand helix for balanced chip flow
• AlTiN coating for improved heat resistance and extended tool life in hard materials
• Micrograin solid carbide substrate for rigidity and wear resistance
• Single-end, right-hand cutting direction with 0.125-inch shank diameter
• Long-length series with 2.5-inch OAL for added reach in deep-cavity applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard collet chucks and tool holders accepting a 0.125-inch shank diameter; suitable for CNC machining centers and high-speed spindle setups used in miniature and precision milling applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before loading or unloading the tool. Seat the shank fully in the collet to the appropriate gauge length and torque the collet nut to the tool-holder manufacturer specification. Verify runout with a dial indicator before committing to a production cut, as small-diameter end mills are sensitive to collet concentricity and clamping force.
