Accupro 41751173 Ball End Mill 1/16 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 41751173 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling operations in tight geometries and small-feature work. It carries a 1/16 inch (0.0625 inch) mill diameter with a 0.0570 inch length of cut and a 0.0310 inch neck length, making it well-suited for fine detail passes and contour work in hardened or abrasive materials. The AlTiCrN coating improves heat resistance and tool life in demanding cutting conditions. With a 1/8 inch shank diameter and a 1.5 inch overall length, this single-end, 2-flute design balances rigidity with chip evacuation in miniature milling applications. Machinists and toolroom operators working on CNC machining centers will find this tool appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing passes.

This ball end mill is intended for use in CNC milling applications where small-diameter, high-precision toolpaths are required. Typical applications include die and mold work, micro-feature machining, and contour finishing on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The AlTiCrN coating makes it suitable for dry or minimal-lubrication cutting in harder materials. The 2-flute geometry supports chip clearance in shallow cavities and tight profile cuts where chip packing is a concern.

Key Features

• 0.0625 inch mill diameter for fine-detail and small-feature milling
• AlTiCrN coating for improved heat resistance and extended tool life in hard materials
• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 0.0570 inch length of cut with 0.0310 inch neck length for tight-geometry access
• 2-flute design promotes chip evacuation in shallow cuts and contour passes
• Single-end configuration with 1/8 inch shank for standard collet fitment

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC machining centers and manual mills equipped with a 1/8 inch collet or end mill holder accepting standard shank tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and at rest before changing tooling. Secure the shank in a clean, undamaged collet or end mill holder to the appropriate clamping torque per the holder manufacturer specifications. Inspect the cutting edges under magnification before use, as carbide micro-diameter tooling is brittle and susceptible to chipping from improper handling or runout.
