Accupro 95168722 Square End Mill 0.2813 in 5 Flute Carbide

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 95168722 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal fabrication and machining environments. It features a 0.2813 inch cutting diameter, a 5-flute geometry, and a 45-degree helix angle that promotes smooth chip evacuation and improved surface finish at higher feed rates. The AlTiN coating provides thermal resistance and extended tool life when cutting ferrous materials and hardened steels. At 2 inches overall length with a 0.4375 inch length of cut, this is a stub-length tool built for rigidity in tight setups. It is installed by machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, tool rooms, and production environments.

This end mill is suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a right-hand cut with a right-hand spiral flute is required. The stub length reduces deflection during aggressive cuts, making it a practical choice for high-precision work on CNC machining centers and manual knee mills. The centercutting design allows it to plunge directly into a workpiece without a pre-drilled entry point, expanding its range of use in contouring and pocket-milling applications.

Key Features

• Solid carbide micrograin construction for wear resistance and dimensional stability
• AlTiN coating for high-heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous materials
• 5-flute design increases chip load capacity and improves surface finish compared to 4-flute tools
• 45-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces
• Centercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole
• Stub length reduces overhang and minimizes deflection in close-tolerance setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual mills accepting a 0.3125 inch round shank end mill in a collet or end mill holder.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Secure the shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and verify runout before cutting. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped before tooling changes. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for recommended speeds and feeds based on workpiece material and depth of cut.
