With a cutting diameter of 0.0236 inches and a 2-flute spiral configuration, this end mill delivers clean, accurate cuts in small-feature machining applications. The 30-degree helix angle balances chip evacuation and cutting stability. At 1.5 inches overall length with a length of cut of 0.0709 inches, this tool is suited for tight-tolerance work where rigidity and tool control are critical. It is uncoated and centercutting, making it capable of plunging directly into the workpiece. Typically installed by CNC machinists and tool-and-die professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is appropriate for milling operations on a broad spectrum of materials, including ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, cast iron, stainless steels, superalloys, and plastics, as indicated by its primary workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S. Its regular-length classification and straight-cylindrical shank with a 3.00 mm shank diameter make it compatible with standard collet systems used in vertical machining centers, CNC mills, and manual milling machines. It is well suited for slotting, profiling, and plunge-cutting micro-features where a small-diameter, rigid tool is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.0236-inch cutting diameter for micro and small-feature milling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral design promotes efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle balances cutting performance and stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry into workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation for standard spindle use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for a wide range of base material types\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with materials in workpiece categories H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, superalloys, steel, and plastics.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is locked out before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully and evenly in the collet to minimize runout, as excessive runout is especially damaging at small diameters. Verify spindle speed and feed rate settings are appropriate for the workpiece material and tool diameter before engaging the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0236 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0709 inches (1.80 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: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\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\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.040 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 121\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: M.A. FORD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12102360\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51744643285298,"sku":"12102360","price":61.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/75ee381361ad2368493382236f86aa62_23855b93-938d-40c7-87d1-74eb0943bbe7.jpg?v=1788859398","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-12102360-square-end-mill-0-0236-in-2-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
