With a 3\/16 inch mill diameter, a 5\/8 inch length of cut, and a 2 inch overall length, this tool is sized for tight-tolerance work in smaller features and slots. The 2-flute spiral geometry provides efficient chip evacuation, and the centercutting design allows plunge entry directly into the workpiece. Manufactured from micrograin solid carbide, it delivers consistent rigidity and wear resistance in demanding cutting conditions. This tool is uncoated and runs right-hand cut with right-hand flute direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as high-temperature alloys and cast materials. The M.A. FORD. Series 121 designation covers standard-length, straight-shank square end mills used across CNC machining centers, manual mills, and toolroom applications. Typical uses include slotting, side milling, and profile milling where a fine finish and accurate dimensions are required in smaller-diameter work. The 30-degree helix angle balances cutting force and surface finish across a range of workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute spiral design promotes chip clearance in slots and pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting capability allows direct plunge milling without a pre-drilled entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle suitable for a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish for use as-is or as a base for shop-applied coatings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit tool in standard 3\/16 inch straight-shank collet holders and tool holders used on CNC machining centers and manual milling machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Secure the shank fully within the collet or end mill holder to the recommended engagement depth before tightening. Verify spindle speed and feed rate are set per the material being cut before starting the spindle. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use, and replace the tool if edge integrity is compromised.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8 inch (0.6250 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\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\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.002 inches\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\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: 12118750\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728870867250,"sku":"12118750","price":45.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/48fb47493bf77d6447525fa9ab3c798f.jpg?v=1788697180","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-12118750-square-end-mill-3-16-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
