Built on the H40ALV-3 series platform, this single-end, center-cutting tool features a 1\/2 inch mill diameter, a 0.01 inch corner radius, and a 40-degree high helix angle optimized for chip evacuation in aluminum. The variable-pitch flute geometry reduces harmonic vibration during aggressive cuts, supporting both roughing and finishing operations in a single tool. A Zplus PVD coating protects the cutting edges and extends tool life in non-ferrous applications. This tool is intended for use in high-precision toolholders to maintain runout control at the spindle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for CNC machining operations in job shops, aerospace fabrication, mold shops, and production environments where aluminum and non-ferrous alloys are the primary workpiece materials. The 2-1\/2 inch length of cut allows deep-cavity profiling, slotting, and contouring passes where standard-length tools cannot reach. Secondary material capability extends to steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high-temperature alloys, and hard materials, making this a versatile option when aluminum is the primary application but mixed-material runs occur. Right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional CNC spindle configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch diameter solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute variable-pitch geometry reduces chatter and harmonics during high-feed passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e40-degree high helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation in aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.01 inch corner radius extends edge life and reduces stress concentration at the tool corner\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZplus PVD coating enhances lubricity and heat resistance in non-ferrous cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows direct plunge entry without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with high-precision toolholders; primary material application is aluminum and non-ferrous metals, with secondary capability in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, high-temperature alloys, and hard materials.

Use a high-precision toolholder such as a shrink-fit or hydraulic chuck to keep total indicator runout within the 0.0003 inch TIR maximum specified for this tool. Inspect the toolholder bore and shank for contamination or wear before seating the tool. Verify cutting parameters against the machine spindle speed and feed rate capabilities before initiating the first pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 0.0100 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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches (1.5000 inches decimal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.0000 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\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\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\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\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: Variable\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 (PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Corner Radius\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\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\u003eTIR Maximum\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: H40ALV-3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 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: HELICAL SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 87025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELICAL SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51730104222002,"sku":"87025","price":211.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ff77644b9072d2e5f101234a324dd4eb.jpg?v=1788711803","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/helical-solutions-87025-corner-radius-end-mill-1-2-in-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
