Accupro 315180 Square End Mill 5/8in 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 315180 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision metal cutting in machining centers and manual milling operations. It features a 5/8-inch mill diameter, a 3/4-inch length of cut, and a 37-degree helix angle that promotes aggressive chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The ZrN (zirconium nitride) coating adds surface hardness and heat resistance, extending tool life in ferrous and non-ferrous applications. Micrograin carbide construction provides the rigidity needed for tight-tolerance work. This is a single-end, right-hand cutting tool with a stub-length profile, well suited to jobs where shorter projection reduces deflection.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers, knee mills, and similar milling equipment where close tolerances and clean square shoulders are required. The stub-length design and 5/8-inch shank diameter make it a practical choice for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in steel, aluminum, and similar materials. It is centercutting, allowing direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Machinists and toolroom technicians handling production or job-shop work will find this a standard-duty replacement or new-setup tool.

Key Features

• 5/8-inch mill diameter with a tolerance of +0.000 / -0.002 inches for controlled fit and finish
• 3 flutes with right-hand spiral flute direction for efficient chip removal
• 37-degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish
• ZrN coating increases wear resistance and extends tool life across a range of workpiece materials
• Micrograin solid carbide construction provides rigidity and resistance to chipping
• Centercutting geometry enables direct plunge milling without a pre-drilled hole

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or new-setup tool for standard 5/8-inch collet or end mill holders used in CNC machining centers and conventional milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Secure the shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder, ensuring the full recommended engagement length is gripped to minimize runout and deflection. Confirm spindle direction is set to right-hand rotation before operation. Follow machine manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards when setting tool offsets and feeds and speeds.
