It features a 1\/4-inch mill diameter, a 3\/8-inch length of cut, and a 2.5-inch overall length with a 1\/4-inch straight cylindrical shank. The 40-degree high-helix geometry promotes aggressive chip evacuation and reduced heat buildup in non-ferrous applications. A Zplus PVD coating provides surface lubricity and wear resistance without added thermal load. The variable index flute spacing helps suppress chatter during both roughing and finishing passes. This tool is designed for use by machinists and CNC operators working with aluminum, brass, copper, and similar soft metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill fits residential and commercial CNC machining environments where aluminum and non-ferrous workpieces require precise contouring, profiling, and finishing. The reduced neck design and extended reach of 3\/4 inch allow access into pockets and slots where standard-neck end mills cannot reach without tool deflection concerns. It is a single-end tool with right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction, suited for typical climb and conventional milling operations on vertical and horizontal CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear life in non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree high-helix angle promotes efficient chip flow and reduces built-up edge in aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable index flute spacing reduces harmonic chatter during roughing and finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZplus PVD coating adds lubricity and extends tool life without excessive heat transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduced neck profile enables deep-pocket reach up to 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall nose geometry produces smooth 3D contour surfaces and radius floor features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on CNC machining centers cutting aluminum alloys and non-ferrous materials, consistent with the Series 3 Flute, Ball - 40 Helix, Variable Pitch, Reduced Neck, End Mills for Aluminum Alloys and Non-Ferrous Materials product family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC setup technicians. Secure the 1\/4-inch straight shank in a compatible collet or end mill holder, verifying TIR does not exceed 0.0003 inches as specified. Confirm spindle is fully stopped and machine is in a safe state before tool changes. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety protocols when handling carbide cutting tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches (1\/4 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5000 inches (2-1\/2 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2500 inches (1\/4 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1250 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3750 inches (3\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2370 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReach Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7500 inches (3\/4 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zplus (PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0620 \/ -0.0620 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTIR Maximum\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.057 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: 47076\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELICAL SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755544871218,"sku":"47076","price":92.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ebc44854b31c482d3b4c8b908175f8a6_28b2f10e-cb41-4041-8139-bda7cee228c2.jpg?v=1788955907","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/helical-solutions-47076-ball-end-mill-1-4-in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
