Accupro 14881912 Ball End Mill 1/8 in 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14881912 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling in tight geometries and small-feature work. The 0.1250-inch mill diameter and 3/16-inch length of cut make it well suited for fine detail passes, contour work, and three-dimensional profiling. Three flutes in a right-hand spiral configuration with a 30-degree helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes in a range of workpiece materials. The bright/uncoated finish on micrograin carbide stock is appropriate for non-ferrous metals, plastics, and composites. This is a single-end tool with a 1/4-inch neck and a 1/8-inch straight shank. It belongs to the ACCUPRO Miniature series and is installed by machinists and toolroom professionals.

This end mill is used in CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and toolroom machines where small-diameter tooling is required. Typical applications include engraving, die and mold detail work, aerospace component finishing, and precision fixturing. The extended-reach neck geometry, with a 1-1/4-inch neck length, allows access to recessed features and deep pockets without tool deflection becoming a primary concern at light depths of cut. The 2-1/2-inch overall length provides clearance in setups where standard stub-length tooling cannot reach the work surface.

Key Features

• 0.1250-inch ball nose diameter for small-radius contouring and detail milling
• 3-flute right-hand spiral with 30-degree helix for smooth chip flow
• Micrograin solid carbide substrate for edge retention and rigidity
• Extended-reach design with 1-1/4-inch neck length for deep-pocket access
• Bright/uncoated finish compatible with non-ferrous materials and plastics
• Single-end construction, Miniature series, 1/8-inch shank for standard collet compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style miniature ball end mill for use in any CNC or manual milling machine equipped with a collet or chuck accepting a 1/8-inch straight shank.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists using an appropriate collet or end mill holder rated for the 1/8-inch shank diameter. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and locked before changing tooling. Verify runout at the tool tip after clamping, as small-diameter carbide tooling is sensitive to concentricity errors. Do not exceed the manufacturer-recommended speeds and feeds for the workpiece material and depth of cut.
