With a 1\/8 inch cutting diameter, a 1 inch length of cut, and a 45-degree helix angle, this tool promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces built-up edge — two critical factors when machining soft, gummy materials like aluminum. The Zplus coating adds lubricity and heat resistance at the cutting edge. This is a single-end, right-hand cutting tool with a straight cylindrical shank, suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills running aluminum stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill fits residential and commercial machine shop environments, production floors, and toolroom operations where close-tolerance aluminum milling is required. The 1\/8 inch diameter and 2.5 inch overall length make it well suited for fine detail work, slot milling, and profiling in aluminum plate or extrusion. It is installed by machinists and CNC operators in applications where a compact, high-helix tool is specified for light-material high-speed cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45-degree helix angle promotes aggressive chip lift and reduced cutting pressure in aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute geometry balances chip room with surface finish quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZplus coating provides lubricity and edge protection for non-ferrous applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction delivers rigidity and wear resistance over high-speed tool paths\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting design allows plunge entry without a pre-drilled hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in the HELICAL SOLUTIONS End Mills for Aluminum 3 Flute Square 45 Degree Helix series.

The tool must be seated fully and concentrically in a clean, undamaged collet or toolholder before tightening to the holder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the collet and taper for runout before use, as excessive runout at 1\/8 inch diameter accelerates wear and can cause tool breakage. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch (0.1250 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: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch (0.125 inches)\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\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zplus\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Helical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\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\u003eCenter Cutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle\/Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.001 pounds\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: 87061\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HELICAL SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727179972914,"sku":"87061","price":66.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/abf5f097c803582698c3fff5a30bbe1f.jpg?v=1788674389","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/helical-solutions-87061-square-end-mill-1-8-in-3-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
