Accupro 95169722 Corner Radius End Mill 1/2 in 5 Flute

Product Description

The ACCUPRO 95169722 is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for precision milling operations in ferrous and high-temp alloy materials. It features a 1/2 inch diameter, a 1-1/4 inch length of cut, and a 3 inch overall length. The AlCrTiN coating provides heat and oxidation resistance suited to aggressive cutting conditions. With 5 flutes, a 38-degree helix, variable index spacing, and a chipbreaker geometry, this tool is built for high-efficiency material removal with reduced chatter. The 0.030 inch corner radius protects the cutting edge and improves corner strength in slotting and profiling applications. Installed by machinists and CNC operators in job shop and production environments.

This end mill is well suited to vertical and horizontal machining centers running high-speed or hard-material applications. The straight cylindrical shank accepts standard collet and end mill holders sized for 1/2 inch shanks. Single-end, right-hand cutting direction with right-hand flute spiral. The centercutting design allows plunge entry. Micrograin carbide substrate supports tight tolerances and extended tool life in demanding cuts. Typical applications include profiling, contouring, and ramping in mold and die work, aerospace components, and general precision machining.

Key Features

• AlCrTiN coating for high heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous and high-temp alloys
• 5-flute, 38-degree variable index design reduces harmonic vibration and improves surface finish
• 0.030 inch corner radius strengthens the cutting edge and reduces chipping at corners
• Chipbreaker geometry improves chip evacuation in deep cuts
• Centercutting capability allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilled holes
• Micrograin solid carbide substrate provides rigidity and wear resistance

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 1/2 inch collet chucks, end mill holders, and shrink-fit holders on CNC vertical and horizontal machining centers. Compatible with machines accepting straight cylindrical shank tooling in the 1/2 inch shank diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before changing tooling. Seat the shank to the recommended engagement depth in the holder and torque the retention mechanism per the holder manufacturer specifications. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before beginning production cuts.
