With a 3\/16-inch (0.1875 inches) mill diameter and a 1-inch length of cut, this tool delivers clean, efficient material removal in applications where surface finish and chip evacuation are critical. The 40-degree helix angle promotes aggressive cutting action while reducing heat buildup, and the variable index flute spacing helps minimize chatter and harmonic vibration during cuts. It is a single-end, center-cutting tool with a right-hand cutting and flute direction. Machining professionals and CNC operators working with aluminum, brass, copper, and similar non-ferrous alloys are the primary users of this end mill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is purpose-built for aluminum and non-ferrous workpiece materials, making it well suited for aerospace, automotive, and general precision machining environments. The straight 3\/16-inch shank pairs with standard collet chucks and tool holders, and the 3-inch overall length provides adequate reach for most shallow-to-medium-depth pocketing and profiling operations. The bright, uncoated finish is intentional for aluminum applications, where coatings can cause material adhesion. It is sold as a single-end tool in a quantity of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute geometry with variable index pitch reduces chatter and improves surface finish in aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40-degree helix angle optimizes chip flow and reduces cutting forces in non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance over high-speed cutting cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows plunge entry as well as peripheral milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish prevents material pickup when machining aluminum and soft non-ferrous alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand helical flutes for standard CNC spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and direct-fit tooling option for CNC machining centers and manual mills using standard straight-shank collet systems with 3\/16-inch bore capacity, optimized for aluminum and non-ferrous material applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation and tool changes must be performed with the machine spindle fully stopped and the CNC control in a safe state. Ensure the collet and tool holder bore are clean and free of chips before seating the shank. Consult the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for proper runout tolerances and clamping torque for the collet system in use. Tool projection and stick-out should be minimized to maintain rigidity and achieve optimal cutting performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40 degrees\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\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Index\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fractional Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.037 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: 48060\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELICAL SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737722061106,"sku":"48060","price":61.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e42bfdf53c6c6e31a8a589b0c5de1415_c62ed0ba-ddc5-442d-9aa5-d2db41464306.jpg?v=1788792796","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/helical-solutions-48060-square-end-mill-3-16-in-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
