Accupro 95168515 Square End Mill 3 Flute 0.1875 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 95168515 is a 3-flute solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in demanding metalworking and machining applications. Built from micrograin solid carbide, this tool delivers the rigidity and wear resistance required when cutting hardened alloys, stainless steel, and other difficult materials. The AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and reduces friction during high-speed cutting operations. With a 60-degree helix angle and right-hand spiral flute geometry, the 95168515 promotes aggressive chip evacuation while maintaining a stable, consistent cut. This end mill is center-cutting, allowing direct plunge entry in addition to standard peripheral milling passes.

This end mill is suited for CNC machining centers, manual knee mills, and similar setups in job shops, production floors, and toolroom environments. The 0.1875 inch diameter and regular-length configuration make it well-suited for slotting, profiling, and contouring in tight or confined features where a smaller-diameter tool is required. Machinists working with ferrous and non-ferrous alloys will find this geometry appropriate for finish and semi-finish passes requiring close dimensional control.

Key Features

• Micrograin solid carbide construction for superior hardness and edge retention
• AlTiN coating enhances heat resistance and extends tool life in dry or high-speed cuts
• 60-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action
• Center-cutting design allows plunge milling in addition to lateral passes
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute spiral for standard CNC and manual mill setups
• Tight mill diameter tolerance of +0.000/-0.002 inches for consistent dimensional accuracy

Compatibility

Designed as a standard straight-shank square end mill compatible with ER collets, end mill holders, and similar toolholding systems accepting a 0.1875 inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and tool changes should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully stopped and machine power isolated per shop safety procedures. Ensure the collet or holder is clean and free of debris before seating the shank to the specified depth. Verify runout with a dial indicator after clamping, as excessive runout will accelerate wear and degrade surface finish. Do not exceed the tool manufacturer's recommended speeds and feeds for the workpiece material and coating type.
