Ford. 12100800 Square End Mill 0.008 in 2 Flute Carbide","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe M.A. FORD. 12100800 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision micro-milling operations. With a 0.008-inch cutting diameter and a 0.024-inch length of cut, this tool is engineered for fine-detail work where dimensional accuracy is critical. It runs a 2-flute, right-hand spiral flute geometry at a 30-degree helix angle, and the centercutting design allows plunge entry into the workpiece. The straight cylindrical shank measures 0.125 inches in diameter, and the tool overall length is 1.5 inches. This is an uncoated tool in the Series 121 regular-length lineup, suited for shops requiring tight-tolerance micro end mill performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is appropriate for machining a range of workpiece material categories including cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, aluminum alloys, heat-resistant superalloys, and steel. It is intended for use on CNC machining centers and high-speed spindle setups where very small diameter tooling is required. Machinists working in aerospace, medical device, electronics, and precision component manufacturing will find this tool applicable to fine contouring, slotting, and profiling operations at micro scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.008-inch cutting diameter with a mill diameter tolerance of plus 0.0005 inch and minus 0.0005 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute, right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle for improved chip evacuation at micro diameters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry supports direct plunge entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank, 0.125-inch diameter, compatible with standard collet toolholding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style micro square end mill for use with standard collet-style toolholders accepting a 0.125-inch straight cylindrical shank, appropriate for high-speed CNC spindles requiring Series 121 regular-length carbide end mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of small-diameter end mills should be performed by a qualified machinist with the spindle fully de-energized and machine locked out per facility LOTO procedures. Ensure the collet and toolholder bore are clean and free of debris before seating the shank. Micro-diameter carbide tools are brittle and require careful handling to avoid chipping the cutting edges during setup. Follow machine tool manufacturer runout and clamping torque specifications for the toolholder in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.008 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.0005 inches \/ minus 0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.024 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches (1\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 121\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: 12100800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51727230566706,"sku":"12100800","price":106.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/946055cab2f5e8bd61192356bdc092e4.jpg?v=1788675066","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-12100800-square-end-mill-0-008-in-2-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
