Accupro 14883555 Square End Mill 0.045in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 14883555 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. With a 0.045 inch cutting diameter and a 0.225 inch length of cut, this tool is built for close-tolerance work in tight geometries and fine-detail passes. The micrograin carbide construction delivers hardness and wear resistance suited to ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Three right-hand spiral flutes at a 30-degree helix angle promote efficient chip evacuation and a clean cut surface. The bright, uncoated finish makes this a general-purpose option where coating is not required by the application.

This end mill is used in CNC machining centers and manual mills for slotting, profiling, and contouring operations where small-diameter precision tooling is required. The single-end configuration, 1/8 inch shank diameter, and 2.5 inch overall length make it compatible with standard collet systems and tool holders found in production and job-shop environments. It is well suited to machinists working in aerospace, mold-making, electronics, and general precision machining.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for extended tool life and edge retention
• 3 right-hand spiral flutes with 30-degree helix for efficient chip flow
• Center-cutting capable, allowing direct plunge entry into workpiece material
• Bright/uncoated finish for general-purpose use across a range of materials
• Mill diameter tolerance of +0.0000 / -0.0010 inches for close-tolerance applications
• Single-end design with 1/8 inch shank for broad collet compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 1/8 inch collets and tool holders on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines requiring small-diameter solid carbide end mills.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and machine power isolated per shop lockout/tagout procedures. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the collet nut is torqued to the tool holder manufacturer's specification before running. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping before each use, particularly on tools of this diameter. Consult your machine's programming documentation for appropriate feeds and speeds for the workpiece material.
