Ford. 17737514A Corner Radius End Mill 3\/8 in 4 Flute","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M.A. FORD. 17737514A is a solid carbide corner radius end mill designed for high-performance milling in demanding materials. With a 3\/8-inch cutting diameter and a 0.03-inch corner radius, it delivers controlled edge geometry that reduces stress concentration and extends tool life in roughing and finishing operations. The 4-flute, variable helix design improves chip evacuation and reduces chatter across a range of cut depths. An ALTiN (ALtima) PVD coating provides thermal and oxidation resistance, making this end mill effective in dry or semi-dry cutting environments. Installed in compatible straight-shank toolholders, this tool fits standard CNC machining center setups used by tool-and-die, aerospace, and precision machining shops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis end mill is suited for milling steel, stainless steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium — workpiece material codes P, M, K, and S. The short flute length and 7\/8-inch length of cut (LOC) keep the tool rigid in applications where deflection control is critical. It is centercutting, allowing plunge entry when required. Typical applications include profile milling, slotting, and contour finishing on ferrous and exotic alloys in both production and job-shop environments. The straight-cylindrical shank seats in standard collet chucks, shrink-fit holders, and hydraulic chucks without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in hard and abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eALTiN (ALtima) PVD coating for high-temperature performance in steel, stainless, and superalloys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVariable helix flute geometry reduces vibration and improves surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.03-inch corner radius protects the cutting edge and improves part corner integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCentercutting design allows plunge milling without a pre-drilled entry hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, right-hand flute spiral — compatible with standard CNC spindle rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard straight-shank toolholders accepting a 3\/8-inch shank diameter.

Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe state before inserting or removing the tool from the holder. Verify runout with a dial indicator after seating — excessive runout will accelerate edge wear and reduce corner radius accuracy. Do not exceed the toolholder's published clamping torque specifications for the holder type in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/8 inches (0.8750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (Decimal, 4-place)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches (2.5000 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0300 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches (0.3750 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight-Cylindrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Corner Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\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: ALTiN \/ ALtima (PVD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Helix\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentercutting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Removal Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roughing and Finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMill Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0030 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 \/ -0.0003 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Stainless Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys, Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 177\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.13 pounds\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: 17737514A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"M.A. FORD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755896439090,"sku":"17737514A","price":127.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e6e333674fb84484aaeabb0acb4f3aed_22c11055-aab8-48e9-bbb5-6ea0c1bd3fe0.jpg?v=1788961306","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/m-a-ford-17737514a-corner-radius-end-mill-3-8-in-4-flute","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
