It features a 1\/2 inch cutting diameter, a 2 inch length of cut, and a 5-flute configuration with a 45-degree helix angle. The long-series geometry extends reach into deep pockets and slots where standard-length end mills fall short. The bright, uncoated finish preserves the as-ground carbide edge and suits applications where coating buildup or heat sensitivity is a concern. Machinists and tool-and-die shops use this type of tool on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill fits residential and commercial machine shop environments alike. The 1\/2 inch shank matches standard ER, Weldon, and collet-style toolholders common in 40-taper and 50-taper spindles. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction follow conventional milling orientation. The 4 inch overall length and long length-of-cut range make it suitable for deep-cavity work, mold machining, and plate work where a stub-length tool cannot reach. Chipbreaker geometry is not present, so chip evacuation relies on flute volume and coolant strategy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute design increases feed rates and finish quality compared to 4-flute equivalents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle improves chip flow and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong-series length of cut (2 inches) provides deep-pocket reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable — allows direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish maintains sharp carbide edge geometry without coating influence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement for standard 1\/2 inch shank square end mills in ER collet chucks, Weldon-flat holders, and milling chucks on CNC and manual machining centers requiring a long-series, 5-flute solid carbide tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists familiar with rotating toolholder systems. De-energize and lock out the spindle drive before changing tooling. Torque the collet nut or set screw to the toolholder manufacturer specification using the appropriate spanner or hex key. Verify runout with a dial indicator after seating; excessive runout on a 5-flute tool at high RPM accelerates edge wear and can cause premature tool failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide, Micrograin Grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0001 \/ -0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACCUPRO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2500163\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51738563543346,"sku":"2500163","price":129.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9a2e9095a27f9da8e8f736d32f245d01.jpg?v=1788801058","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-2500163-square-end-mill-1-2-in-5-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
