Ford. 11101570 Square End Mill 0.0157 in 4 Flute Carbide","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe M.A. FORD. 11101570 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for high-precision milling at micro diameters. With a 0.0157 inch (0.40 mm) mill diameter and a 0.0472 inch (1.20 mm) length of cut, this tool is built for tight-tolerance work in small-feature machining applications. The 4-flute, right-hand spiral flute geometry provides efficient chip evacuation and a stable cut at reduced feed rates common to miniature tooling. At 1.5 inches overall length with a 3.00 mm straight-cylindrical shank, it fits standard tool holders used in CNC machining centers. This end mill is centercutting, allowing direct plunge entry. It is installed and used by machinists and CNC operators working in production or tool room environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling operations requiring fine detail in small workpiece features. The Series 111 designation covers a range of micro end mills in regular length configurations. The primary workpiece material codes listed are H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, steel, heat-resistant alloys, and non-metallic materials. The uncoated carbide substrate performs across this range when speeds and feeds are properly dialed for the 0.0157 inch diameter. Typical applications include slot milling, contouring, and pocket milling at micro scale on CNC machining centers and high-speed spindles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.0157 inch (0.40 mm) mill diameter for micro-scale milling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance at small diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-flute spiral flute design with 30-degree helix angle for balanced cutting action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry without pilot drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration for standard CNC spindle use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated substrate compatible with a broad range of workpiece materials including steel, stainless, aluminum, and cast iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S as specified by the manufacturer.

Secure the 3.00 mm straight shank fully into the collet or holder and confirm clamping force is appropriate for the shank diameter. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing tooling per applicable shop safety procedures. At 0.0157 inch diameter, tool deflection and breakage risk are elevated at aggressive feed rates; start conservatively and adjust from established cutting data for solid carbide micro end mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0157 inches (0.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0472 inches (1.20 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.00 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 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\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.025 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 111\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material Codes\u003c\/strong\u003e: H, K, M, N, P, S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: M.A. FORD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11101570\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755327881522,"sku":"11101570","price":62.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/98985804b90e079da12a06429df59df1.jpg?v=1788953735","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-11101570-square-end-mill-0-0157-in-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
