Accupro 38137980 Double Angle Milling Cutter 60 Deg Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 38137980 is a double angle milling cutter designed for precision angle milling and chamfering operations on machining centers and manual milling machines. Built from solid carbide, it delivers rigidity and edge retention well beyond high-speed steel alternatives. The cutter features a 60-degree included angle, a 1/2 inch cutting diameter, and a 7/64 inch (0.109 inch) cutting width. With 6 teeth and an uncoated finish, it suits applications where tight tolerances and clean angular profiles are the priority. The 1/2 inch shank provides a standard, secure grip in collet and end-mill holders commonly found in production and tool-room environments.

This cutter is suited for light to moderate angular milling tasks in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a precise 60-degree profile is required. Typical applications include dovetail slot preparation, chamfering, and deburring of angular features in tool-and-die, aerospace, and general machining operations. The 5/16 inch neck diameter and 39/64 inch neck length allow clearance access in shallow pockets and confined workpiece geometries. It is sold individually and is appropriate for use on CNC vertical machining centers as well as manual knee mills.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for superior hardness and edge retention compared to HSS
• 60-degree included angle for accurate chamfer and dovetail profile work
• 6-tooth configuration balances chip evacuation with surface finish quality
• 1/2 inch shank diameter fits standard collet chucks and end-mill holders
• Uncoated finish suitable for applications where coolant is used and re-sharpening is anticipated
• Reduced neck diameter of 5/16 inch provides clearance in confined milling scenarios

Compatibility

Designed as a standard shank-type double angle milling cutter compatible with 1/2 inch collet chucks and end-mill holders on vertical milling machines and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. The machine spindle must be fully stopped and the machine powered down before changing tooling. Seat the 1/2 inch shank fully into the collet or end-mill holder and torque the retention mechanism per the machine tool manufacturer specification. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or damage before each use, and confirm runout with a dial indicator when tolerance-critical work is planned.
