Built to Series 138 specifications, it features a 0.3125 inch (5\/16 inch) cutting diameter, a 0.3125 inch length of cut, and a 2.5 inch overall length in a stub-length configuration. The 36-degree spiral helix and three-flute geometry promote efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Micrograin carbide construction provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for consistent performance in demanding cutting environments. This end mill ships in a bright, uncoated finish and is center-cutting capable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling non-ferrous metals, the primary workpiece material class for this tool. The stub-length profile makes it well suited to applications requiring maximum rigidity, such as shallow pocketing, slotting, and profiling passes where tool deflection must be minimized. It accepts a standard straight-cylindrical shank and fits conventional end mill holders and collet chucks used on vertical machining centers and CNC milling machines. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with aluminum, brass, copper, and similar non-ferrous stock will find this tool appropriate for their production and job-shop applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid micrograin carbide construction for hardness and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute, 36-degree right-hand spiral helix for efficient chip evacuation in non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capable  -  supports plunge entry cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStub-length OAL of 2.5 inches maximizes rigidity and reduces deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright\/uncoated finish suitable for use with or without cutting fluid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute direction; fits standard end mill tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a Series 138 stub-length square end mill for use with standard straight-cylindrical shank end mill holders and collet chucks rated for 0.3125 inch (5\/16 inch) shank diameter; primary workpiece material class is non-ferrous metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing or seating the tool in the holder. Verify collet or end mill holder bore is clean and free of chips before inserting the shank; shank diameter tolerance is h6. Confirm runout and tool projection before beginning a cut, and follow applicable shop safety procedures for rotating cutting tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches (5\/16 inch)\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\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches (5\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches (5\/16 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: h6\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\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCenter Cutting\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: 0.0818 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: 13831200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740137783602,"sku":"13831200","price":85.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f857fc6fa96f6209f77d67bdd9e438b4_d16cd31c-736a-46fc-9e6e-6ec7f5a98270.jpg?v=1788822774","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-13831200-square-end-mill-3-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
