Accupro 314732 Square End Mill 3/8 in 3 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 314732 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in metal fabrication, tooling, and machining applications. With a 3/8 inch cutting diameter and 1 inch length of cut, it removes material efficiently in a compact, rigid package. The micrograin carbide construction supports sharper edges and longer tool life compared to standard carbide grades. A 37-degree helix angle promotes smooth chip evacuation and reduces cutting force. The bright/uncoated finish works well across a broad range of workpiece materials. This is a single-end, right-hand cut tool installed by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments.

This end mill fits standard 3/8 inch collets and tool holders on CNC machining centers, knee mills, and manual milling machines. The regular-length geometry and 2.5 inch overall length suit general-purpose slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling tasks. The centercutting design allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece. With three flutes and a spiral flute form, it balances chip room with edge strength, making it a practical choice for steel, aluminum, and engineering plastics where a standard-reach tool is appropriate.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide construction for improved edge retention and wear resistance
• 37-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge milling without a pre-drilled hole
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute spiral for use in standard CNC and manual mill setups
• Bright/uncoated finish suits a wide range of common workpiece materials
• Single-end configuration with 3/8 inch shank diameter for direct collet or end mill holder mounting

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/8 inch collets, shrink-fit holders, and end mill holders on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines. Regular-length geometry fits general-purpose tool libraries without extended-reach adapters.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the tool holder is clean and free of chips before seating the shank. Confirm runout is within tolerance after installation using a dial indicator. Consult the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for proper torque when securing set-screw or collet-style holders.
