Accupro 2500473 Ball End Mill 7mm 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 2500473 is a single-end ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. Built from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers rigidity and wear resistance suited to finishing and semi-finishing passes in hardened and abrasive workpiece materials. The 7.00 mm cutting diameter pairs with a 19.00 mm length of cut and a 37-degree helix angle to promote smooth chip evacuation and reduce cutting forces. A zirconium nitride (ZrN) coating adds surface hardness and heat resistance, extending tool life in demanding applications. This end mill is installed and operated by CNC machinists and toolroom technicians.

This end mill is suited for contour milling, slotting, and 3D profiling operations on machining centers and CNC milling machines. The 8.00 mm shank diameter fits standard ER and milling chucks common in production and toolroom setups. The right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction make it compatible with conventional CNC spindle configurations. With no chipbreaker and a standard spiral flute form, it is best applied in finishing passes or light-to-moderate material removal on ferrous and non-ferrous alloys.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life
• ZrN coating improves surface hardness and thermal resistance during cutting
• 37-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduced cutting forces
• 3 flutes provide a balance of chip clearance and surface finish quality
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction for standard CNC spindle use
• Single-end design for straightforward toolholder setup

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or standard toolroom addition for CNC milling machines and machining centers accepting an 8.00 mm shank diameter. The manufacturers catalog number for cross-reference is 350MM-02756BNC5.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified CNC machinist or toolroom technician. Secure the shank fully within the toolholder collet or chuck to the minimum engagement depth recommended by the toolholder manufacturer before tightening. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation to avoid premature tool wear or workpiece damage.
