It features a 1\/32 inch (0.0300 inch decimal) mill diameter with a 1\/16 inch length of cut and a 1\/8 inch straight-cylindrical shank. Overall length is 1-1\/2 inches, placing it in the stub length category. The two-flute, right-hand spiral design with a 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation. Centercutting capability allows for direct plunging into workpiece material. This end mill is uncoated solid carbide and suits shops and machinists working with small-feature, tight-tolerance cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling small slots, pockets, and contours where minimal tool diameter is required. The stub length geometry provides rigidity at very small diameters, reducing deflection during cuts. Compatible workpiece material codes include H, K, M, N, P, and S, covering a broad spectrum of material families such as hardened steels, cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, carbon steel, and heat-resistant superalloys. It is typically used in CNC machining centers, manual mills, and tool rooms where fine detail work demands small-diameter tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/32 inch mill diameter with a tolerance of plus 0.0005 \/ minus 0.0005 inches for precise fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction provides hardness and wear resistance across a wide material range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute right-hand spiral flute design promotes chip clearance in small-diameter cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-degree helix angle balances cutting efficiency and edge strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentercutting geometry allows direct plunge entry without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStub length classification maximizes rigidity at 1\/32 inch diameter to minimize deflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with workpiece material codes H, K, M, N, P, and S as specified by the manufacturer.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Use an appropriate collet or end mill holder sized for a 1\/8 inch shank diameter. Verify runout with a dial indicator after installation, as excessive runout at this diameter will accelerate tool wear and compromise cut quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/32 inch (0.0300 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inch (0.0600 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch (0.1250 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/2 inches (1.5000 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Mill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\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\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\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: plus 0.0005 \/ minus 0.0005 inches\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\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 164\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: 16403000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51754028007730,"sku":"16403000","price":57.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/510312f3af4689f8f983301144090d92.jpg?v=1788943064","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-16403000-square-end-mill-1-32-in-2-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
