With a 0.5 inch cutting diameter, 8 flutes, and a 40-degree helix angle, this end mill delivers efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes in demanding machining environments. The AlTiCrN coating provides enhanced heat and wear resistance, making it well suited for dry or high-speed cutting in hardened materials. Micrograin carbide construction contributes to edge sharpness and tool longevity. This tool is installed and operated by machinists and CNC tooling professionals working in production and job-shop settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 317216 is built for use in vertical and horizontal milling centers, CNC machining centers, and manual mills where a single-end, right-hand cut tool is required. With a 1.25 inch length of cut and a 3 inch overall length, it fits standard 0.5 inch collets and end mill holders. The spiral flute geometry and right-hand flute direction make this tool appropriate for general-purpose profiling, slotting, and contouring operations on metals and other machinable materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-flute geometry supports higher feed rates and improved surface finish compared to lower flute-count tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlTiCrN coating provides thermal and abrasion resistance for extended tool life in ferrous and hardened materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction delivers consistent edge integrity under heavy cutting loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable, allowing plunge entry directly into the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction compatible with standard spindle rotation on most milling machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and production tooling option for milling applications requiring a 0.5 inch shank, single-end square profile end mill in the HS series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Always power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or removing cutting tools. Ensure the shank is fully seated in a clean, properly sized collet or end mill holder and torque to the tool holder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the cutting edges and coating for chips or wear before each use and replace tooling at the first sign of edge degradation to avoid workpiece damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches (1\/2 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiCrN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches (1\/2 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\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: 0.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 317216\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755638653234,"sku":"317216","price":121.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/827b8ee84d7f12aa48a84c9919e15b6e.jpg?v=1788957417","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-317216-square-end-mill-0-5in-8-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
