It features a 0.5-inch cutting diameter, a 1.625-inch length of cut, and four spiral flutes with a 38-degree helix angle for aggressive chip evacuation and smooth finishes. The AlTiCrN coating provides high heat resistance and extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions. The micrograin carbide substrate adds toughness and edge retention. This tool is used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals in CNC milling applications where tight tolerances and surface finish are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 310316 is suited for peripheral and slot milling in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, stainless steels, and hardened alloys. The single-end configuration with a 0.5-inch shank diameter makes it compatible with standard ER collet chucks and end mill holders used in vertical machining centers and CNC mills. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction support conventional climb-milling setups. Variable index spacing reduces harmonic chatter during high-speed passes. The Series HS designation indicates it is optimized for high-speed machining strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5-inch cutting diameter with 1.625-inch length of cut for deep slot and peripheral milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiCrN coating for high-temperature resistance and extended tool life in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e38-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for edge retention and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable index flute spacing reduces vibration and chatter during high-speed cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable, allowing plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 0.5-inch end mill holders, ER collet chucks, and shrink-fit tooling systems on CNC vertical machining centers and manual knee mills.

Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked out before inserting or removing the end mill from the tool holder. Verify that the shank is fully seated to the recommended gauge-line depth in the holder to prevent pull-out under cutting loads. Follow the tooling manufacturer and machine builder guidelines for recommended speeds and feeds based on material and depth of cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches (12.70 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.625 inches (41.23 mm)\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: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiCrN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide, Micrograin Grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: HS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 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: 310316\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737960546610,"sku":"310316","price":129.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3f28d83c6ea0da66ab06bf822008166b.jpg?v=1788795301","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-310316-square-end-mill-0-5-in-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
