Built with a 1\/4 inch diameter and six flutes, it delivers superior chip evacuation and surface finish in difficult-to-machine workpiece materials. The AlTiN+ coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life under elevated cutting temperatures. A variable helix angle of 36 and 40 degrees, combined with a variable index, reduces chatter and vibration during aggressive cuts. This tool is intended for use by machinists and CNC operators working with high-temp alloys and similar hard materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for precision milling operations in aerospace, medical, and industrial manufacturing environments where tight tolerances and finish quality are required. The centercutting geometry allows for plunge entry, and the right-hand cutting and flute direction make it compatible with standard CNC machining centers and manual mills. With a 3\/8 inch length of cut and 2 inch overall length, it fits compact toolpath requirements without sacrificing rigidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlTiN+ coating for high-heat resistance and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix-flute design improves chip evacuation and surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable helix (36 and 40 degrees) and variable index reduce vibration and chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-end, straight shank design for standard collet and toolholder compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in standard 1\/4 inch straight-shank toolholders and collet chucks on CNC machining centers and manual mills.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before loading or removing the tool. Seat the straight shank fully into the collet or toolholder to the recommended engagement depth before torquing. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a production run, as excessive runout will accelerate tool wear and degrade surface finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches (1\/4 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches (1\/4 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 and 40 degrees (variable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Helical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting 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: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Temp Alloy (Code S)\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: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 72032816\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ACCUPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51749701845298,"sku":"72032816","price":64.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1387a1cbc85e69f037e155e448d18e22_d69d2fe4-dae7-44fd-8524-b9322c4dc33d.jpg?v=1788909381","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/accupro-72032816-ball-end-mill-1-4-in-6-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
