Built from micrograin carbide stock, this tool delivers the rigidity and edge retention required for demanding cuts in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It carries a 1\/2-inch mill diameter with a stub-length profile, a 5\/8-inch length of cut, and a 2-1\/2-inch overall length. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. This tool is uncoated and center-cutting, making it suitable for both plunge and side milling operations. Installed by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for use in vertical and horizontal milling centers, CNC machining centers, and manual mills where a 1\/2-inch straight-cylindrical shank is compatible. The Series 163 stub-length design reduces deflection in short-reach applications. The right-hand cut and right-hand flute configuration follows standard industry orientation. Applicable workpiece material codes include H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, steel, and high-temperature alloys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide construction for extended tool life and edge retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute spiral design with 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCenter-cutting capability allows direct plunge entry into workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStub-length profile minimizes deflection in tight or shallow-reach setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut and right-hand flute orientation for standard spindle compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMill diameter tolerance of +0.000 \/ -0.003 inches for consistent fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with milling machines and CNC machining centers accepting a 1\/2-inch straight-cylindrical shank.

Verify that the tool holder collet or end mill chuck is clean and properly torqued to the holder manufacturer specification before running. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use. Never exceed the recommended speeds and feeds for the workpiece material and cutter geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches (1\/2 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6250 inches (5\/8 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.6000 - 0.7000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches (1\/2 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelix Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 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\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\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Workpiece Material Codes\u003c\/strong\u003e: H, K, M, N, P, S\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: 16350000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739500904754,"sku":"16350000","price":129.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1c29cb2f38f637af168a34e92155edd0_f2b17391-f3fb-4b74-83fd-8df848973671.jpg?v=1788815304","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-16350000-square-end-mill-1-2-inch-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
