Accupro 15024120 Ball End Mill 0.30mm 2 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 15024120 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling of small-feature geometry in metal, composite, and hardened material applications. With a 0.30 mm cutting diameter and a 0.90 mm length of cut, this tool is built for micro-scale contouring, profiling, and slot milling where tight tolerances and fine surface finish are required. The 2-flute, right-hand spiral configuration provides chip evacuation in confined cuts. A 30-degree helix angle balances cutting forces at this scale. The bright uncoated finish makes this mill well suited for non-ferrous materials and applications where coating interaction with the workpiece is a concern. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working on CNC machining centers install this type of tooling.

This end mill is intended for use in precision CNC milling operations requiring micro-diameter tooling. Typical applications include mold and die work, medical device component machining, electronics component manufacturing, and fine-detail contouring on small workpieces. The 3.00 mm shank diameter accommodates standard micro-tooling collet systems, and the 38.00 mm overall length provides adequate reach for most shallow-cavity setups without sacrificing rigidity at this diameter.

Key Features

• 0.30 mm cutting diameter for micro-scale milling operations
• Solid carbide micrograin construction for rigidity and edge retention at small diameters
• 2-flute right-hand spiral design promotes chip clearance in tight geometries
• 30-degree helix angle balances cutting forces during light-engagement passes
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous and specialty material applications
• Single-end configuration with 3.00 mm shank for standard micro-collet compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and high-speed spindle setups equipped with collet systems accepting a 3.00 mm shank diameter. Suitable for micro-milling of metals, composites, and similar materials where 0.30 mm ball-end geometry is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for micro-diameter tooling. Ensure the spindle and collet are clean and free of debris before seating the shank to the correct insertion depth. At this diameter, runout must be minimized using a precision collet or shrink-fit holder rated for micro tooling. Do not exceed the recommended depth of cut or feed rate for the workpiece material, as micro-diameter carbide tools are sensitive to deflection and brittle fracture under excessive load.
