Hertel E5249012 Ball End Mill 0.1875 in 2 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL E5249012 is a solid carbide ball end mill designed for precision milling of contoured surfaces, slots, and profiling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. With a 0.1875-inch cutting diameter, 0.625-inch length of cut, and a 2-inch overall length, this single-end tool is built for tight-tolerance work where dimensional accuracy matters. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The uncoated solid carbide construction provides rigidity and edge retention in a compact form factor suited for CNC machining centers and manual mills.

This ball end mill is appropriate for light-to-medium profiling, die and mold work, and 3D contouring passes on machining centers in job shop, tool and die, and production environments. Its 0.1875-inch shank diameter matches the cutting diameter, making it compatible with standard ER collet chucks and end mill holders commonly found in vertical machining centers. Right-hand cutting and right-hand flute direction are standard for conventional spindle setups. This tool is typically selected by machinists and CNC operators working in applications that require fine detail and close-tolerance surface profiles.

Key Features

• 0.1875-inch ball nose cutting diameter for fine contour and profiling work
• Solid carbide construction for high rigidity and edge retention
• 2-flute geometry with 30-degree helix for efficient chip evacuation
• 0.625-inch length of cut suits shallow-to-moderate depth profiling
• Uncoated finish appropriate for dry cutting or use with cutting fluids
• Single-end design with right-hand cut and right-hand flute direction

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid carbide ball end mill replacement compatible with standard 3/16-inch ER collet chucks and end mill holders used in CNC vertical machining centers and manual milling setups.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or CNC operator using an appropriate collet chuck or end mill holder rated for the 0.1875-inch shank diameter. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and machine is powered down before changing tooling. Verify runout after tool installation and before initiating a cutting program. Follow machine tool manufacturer guidelines for proper torque on collet nuts and holder retention knobs.
