Ford 13818752 Square End Mill 3\/16 in 3 Flute Carbide","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M.A. FORD 13818752 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling in non-ferrous metals and similar materials. Built from micrograin carbide with a bright uncoated finish, it runs a 3-flute, right-hand spiral configuration with a 36-degree helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. The stub-length geometry keeps the tool rigid, reducing deflection during aggressive cuts. The 0.1875-inch diameter and 0.5-inch length of cut make it well suited for detail work, slotting, and profiling in tight spaces. It is centercutting, so plunge milling is possible without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Machinists and toolroom operators are the primary installers and users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is intended for use on CNC machining centers, knee mills, and manual milling machines handling non-ferrous workpiece materials such as aluminum, brass, copper, and similar alloys. The stub overall length of 2 inches and straight-cylindrical shank with h6 tolerance provide secure tool-holder engagement with minimal runout. Series 138 from M.A. FORD is positioned for general-purpose non-ferrous milling where a balance of tool life and cut quality is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for enhanced rigidity and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-flute right-hand spiral with 36-degree helix for effective chip removal in non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suited to aluminum and other non-ferrous alloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStub-length geometry minimizes deflection for tighter tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank with h6 tolerance for precise tool-holder fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style solid carbide end mill for use in standard 3\/16-inch collets, end mill holders, and shrink-fit holders on CNC and manual milling machines.

Power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or removing the end mill from the holder. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the holder is torqued to the machine manufacturer specification before resuming operation. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping before each use and replace the tool at the first sign of wear to maintain dimensional accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches (1\/2 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1875 inches (3\/16 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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 Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 to -0.0005 inches\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: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 138\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0472 pounds\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: 13818752\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51728473489714,"sku":"13818752","price":70.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f857fc6fa96f6209f77d67bdd9e438b4_2f1e0e5a-72ff-4772-94b3-6a146b5f367a.jpg?v=1788691789","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-13818752-square-end-mill-3-16-in-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
