It carries a 0.0400-inch cutting diameter with a 0.0200-inch nose radius, a 0.0600-inch length of cut, and a stub-length configuration that maximizes rigidity at small diameters. The two-flute, right-hand spiral geometry with a 30-degree helix angle supports both roughing and finishing operations. The bright, uncoated carbide construction is well-suited for shops that prefer to apply their own coatings or work with materials where uncoated carbide performs best. This tool is a single-end design with a straight cylindrical 0.1250-inch shank and a 1.5000-inch overall length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals in applications that demand small-feature capability. Typical use cases include die and mold work, medical component machining, aerospace detail parts, and any operation requiring a miniature ball profile in a production or prototype environment. The stub-length body limits deflection at the cutting end, making it a practical choice when working in shallow pockets or slots where a standard reach tool would introduce chatter or dimensional error.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.0400-inch cutting diameter with plus or minus 0.0005-inch mill diameter tolerance for tight-tolerance work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance at miniature scales\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree right-hand helix with spiral flutes for efficient chip evacuation in steel and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStub-length body reduces deflection and improves dimensional accuracy in shallow features\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish compatible with a wide range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-end design; 0.1250-inch straight cylindrical shank fits standard collet toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers and high-speed spindles accepting a 0.1250-inch straight shank.

Ensure the spindle and toolholder are clean and free of runout before seating the shank. At this diameter, even minor runout will accelerate tool wear and degrade surface finish. Follow the machine tool manufacturer's torque and clamping guidelines for miniature tooling; do not exceed the holder's rated clamping force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0400 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0200 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (Reach)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0600 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: Bright, Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.0005 \/ minus 0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HARVEY TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24540\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HARVEY TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748252516658,"sku":"24540","price":49.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/90237a8f2b51dcc1fb7ad29532375c94_053ad3c6-4167-4cd6-ad78-eb2c822ee812.jpg?v=1788891149","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/harvey-tool-24540-ball-end-mill-0-04-in-2-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
