Accupro 2500170 Roughing End Mill 1 in 4 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 2500170 is a single-end roughing end mill designed for aggressive material removal in milling operations. Built from micrograin solid carbide and coated with TiCN, it delivers extended tool life and heat resistance in demanding cutting applications. The 1-inch mill diameter pairs with a 1-inch shank diameter and a 2-inch length of cut, giving machinists a rigid, low-deflection setup for hogging operations. With 4 right-hand flutes and right-hand cutting direction, this tool suits conventional roughing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. It is installed by machinists and CNC operators working in job shop, production, and maintenance machining environments.

This end mill is suited for roughing operations on vertical and horizontal milling machines as well as CNC machining centers. The TiCN coating improves wear resistance compared to uncoated carbide, making it a practical choice for harder steels and alloys where tool longevity is a priority. The regular length profile keeps it compatible with standard tool holders and collet chucks without requiring extended-reach setups. It is not center-cutting, so it is not intended for direct plunge entry.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for improved rigidity and wear resistance
• TiCN coating for enhanced heat and abrasion resistance
• 1-inch mill diameter with 2-inch length of cut and 4-inch overall length
• 4 right-hand flutes with right-hand cutting direction for standard roughing passes
• Regular length profile fits standard tool holders and collet chucks
• Non-center-cutting design — not suitable for plunge milling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style roughing end mill for use in standard 1-inch tool holders, collet chucks, and milling chucks on vertical mills, horizontal mills, and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Use a properly sized collet or end mill holder matched to the 1-inch shank diameter. Verify runout with a dial indicator after clamping, as excessive runout will accelerate tool wear and reduce cut quality.
