Ford. 13825010 Square End Mill Solid Carbide","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe M.A. FORD. 13825010 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling of non-ferrous metals and similar materials. With a 0.25-inch cutting diameter, a 2-inch length of cut, and a 4-inch overall length, this tool fits standard 0.25-inch straight-cylindrical shank collets. It features 3 helical flutes with a 36-degree helix angle, right-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry, and is centercutting, allowing plunge entry as well as peripheral and slot milling. The uncoated solid carbide construction provides rigidity and edge retention suited for high-RPM finishing and semi-finishing passes on aluminum, brass, copper, and other non-ferrous workpiece materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this tool in CNC machining centers and manual mills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is best applied in non-ferrous metal machining operations including aluminum profiling, slotting, and contouring. The single-end, helical-flute design promotes efficient chip evacuation, reducing heat buildup and recutting. The 36-degree helix angle improves surface finish on softer materials by producing a shearing cut rather than a scraping action. It is suited for both production and job-shop environments where consistent dimensional accuracy and tool life on non-ferrous materials are priorities. No chipbreaker or variable helix features are present, making this a straightforward, general-purpose geometry within the M.A. FORD. Series 138 line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and edge retention in high-RPM applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 helical flutes with a 36-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation and improved surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows plunge, slot, and peripheral milling operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute geometry for standard spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight-cylindrical shank with h6 diameter tolerance for secure collet engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncoated finish — suitable for use with cutting fluids on non-ferrous metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style solid carbide square end mill for use in CNC machining centers and manual milling machines equipped with 0.25-inch straight-cylindrical collet toolholders.

Power down and lock out the spindle before inserting or removing the tool from the collet. Verify collet size matches the 0.25-inch shank diameter and that the tool is seated to the recommended insertion depth before tightening. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping before each use and do not exceed the manufacturer-recommended speeds and feeds for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Helical\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: +0.000 to -0.0005 inches\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\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\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: 1 pound\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: 13825010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51737640796466,"sku":"13825010","price":154.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f857fc6fa96f6209f77d67bdd9e438b4_25a53621-2d56-4856-8616-8949bbe51279.jpg?v=1788791761","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-13825010-square-end-mill-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
