With a 3\/8-inch mill diameter, a 1\/2-inch length of cut, and a 45-degree helix angle, this single-end tool delivers efficient chip evacuation and smooth surface finishes in the materials where geometry matters most. The Zplus coating, a zirconium nitride (ZrN) finish, reduces built-up edge and improves tool life in non-ferrous cuts. The reduced neck geometry and 1.125-inch reach length allow access in deeper cavities without sacrificing rigidity. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals specify this geometry for aluminum roughing and finishing passes where chatter control and chip flow are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for CNC milling applications in job shops, aerospace component work, and general manufacturing where aluminum, brass, copper, and other non-ferrous alloys are the primary workpiece material. The 45-degree right-hand helical flute geometry promotes aggressive chip lift in softer materials. The 4-inch overall length and 3\/8-inch straight shank are compatible with standard collet chucks and end mill holders common in vertical and horizontal machining centers. The reduced neck profile provides extended reach into pockets and stepped features where a standard-length tool would contact the workpiece sidewall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute, 45-degree helix geometry optimized for aluminum and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZplus (ZrN) coating reduces built-up edge and extends tool life in non-ferrous cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced neck design with 1.125-inch reach length for deep-pocket access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting capable  -  supports plunge entry into the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction for standard CNC spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance over high-speed passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers with standard collet or end mill holder tooling that accepts a 3\/8-inch straight shank.

Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before loading or removing the tool. Seat the shank fully in the collet or tool holder to the recommended grip length before torquing the drawbar or collet nut to the holder manufacturer's specification. Confirm runout with a dial indicator before starting a new program, particularly given the reduced neck geometry, which requires a secure hold to prevent deflection under cutting loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches (0.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45 degrees\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: Zplus (ZrN)\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\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum and Non-Ferrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.209 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: HELICAL SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19212\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELICAL SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51784681816370,"sku":"19212","price":89.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6f94a214d73f672913411dcd85c4df96_f19f9079-b087-4e37-b3e5-4ea76f0c4564.jpg?v=1789199471","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/helical-solutions-19212-square-end-mill-3-8-in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
