It features a 1\/2 inch (0.5000 inch) mill diameter, a 0.0300 inch corner radius, and a 1.2500 inch length of cut. The three-flute, single-end design incorporates a variable pitch, right-hand helical flute geometry and a Zplus PVD coating optimized for aluminum and non-ferrous metals. With a 3.0000 inch overall length and 0.5000 inch straight-cylindrical shank, this tool is built for use in high-precision toolholders where runout control is critical. It is rated for both roughing and finishing operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for CNC milling operations on aluminum and non-ferrous metals as its primary workpiece material, with secondary capability on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high temperature alloys, and hard materials. The H40ALV-3 series is engineered for shops running tight-tolerance work where surface finish and tool life must be balanced. It is a centercutting tool, allowing plunge entry, which adds flexibility in complex contouring and pocket milling setups. The variable pitch design reduces harmonic vibration, making it a practical choice for high-speed machining strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.0300 inch corner radius with a tolerance of -0.0020 to 0.0020 inches for consistent edge geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZplus PVD coating optimized for aluminum and non-ferrous metal applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable pitch, right-hand helical flutes reduce chatter during high-speed cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMill diameter and shank diameter both held to h6 tolerance for precision fit in toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum TIR of 0.0003 inches ensures runout stays within tight machining tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with high-precision toolholders.

Use a high-precision toolholder rated for the intended spindle speed and application to stay within the 0.0003 inch maximum TIR specification. Verify shank seating depth and clamping torque according to the toolholder manufacturer guidelines before operation. Inspect the corner radius and cutting edges for chips or wear before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0300 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0020 to 0.0020 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: -0.0620 to 0.0620 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\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\u003eHelix Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Corner Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zplus (PVD)\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\u003eMaximum TIR\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0003 inches\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\u003eChipbreaker\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\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\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\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\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, High Temperature Alloy, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: H40ALV-3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112803\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.236 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: 48406\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELICAL SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51733222162738,"sku":"48406","price":142.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/836188df6fd5041e7ae08acb61863f8a_f37a679e-a4fa-4ab8-9dc5-601028b39e47.jpg?v=1788752948","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/helical-solutions-48406-corner-radius-end-mill-1-2-in-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
