Part of the Series 138 lineup, it features a 6 mm cutting diameter with a 13 mm length of cut and a 36-degree helix angle that promotes efficient chip evacuation at higher feed rates. The micrograin carbide construction delivers the hardness and edge retention needed for consistent performance in production and job-shop environments. Three right-hand spiral flutes provide a balance between chip clearance and cutting edge strength. This tool is installed and used by machinists and CNC operators working in metalworking, aerospace, and general manufacturing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling slots, profiles, and pockets in non-ferrous materials including aluminum, copper, brass, and similar alloys. The bright, uncoated finish makes it a straightforward choice for applications where coolant is used and coating adhesion or heat buildup is not a concern. The straight cylindrical shank with h6 tolerance provides a secure, repeatable grip in standard collets and end mill holders. It is a single-end, non-center-cutting design with no chipbreaker or variable helix, keeping setup and application straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 mm cutting diameter with plus 0.000 \/ minus 0.048 mm diameter tolerance for close-tolerance work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36-degree right-hand helix angle for efficient chip evacuation in non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for hardness and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 right-hand spiral flutes with bright, uncoated finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight cylindrical shank, h6 tolerance, compatible with standard collets and holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting capability for plunge entry operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in CNC machining centers, vertical mills, and manual knee mills equipped with standard collets or end mill holders accepting a 6 mm straight shank.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down or in a safe state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully in the collet or holder to the recommended engagement depth and torque the retention hardware per the tool holder manufacturer specifications. Verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning a production run to protect both the tool and the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 mm (0.2362 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 mm (0.5118 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 58 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 mm (0.2362 inches)\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: plus 0.000 \/ minus 0.048 mm\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\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\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, Micrograin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\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\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: 0.5 pounds\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: 13823620\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748680630578,"sku":"13823620","price":83.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f857fc6fa96f6209f77d67bdd9e438b4_04ccb33a-0da0-4ecc-b991-60e0f4ddd830.jpg?v=1788896609","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-13823620-square-end-mill-6mm-3-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
